Yuvraj Singh f9f7ebe156 XFA: choice lists, signature, password, image and barcode fields; PNG and GIF pictures
The xfa crate lays out the field kinds that were left blank or shown as
text fields:

- Choice lists become combo boxes (editable with textEntry) or list
  boxes (open="always"; multi-select with open="multiSelect"), with the
  shown items and the saved values of <items save="1"> as /Opt pairs,
  /V, /I and /DV as saved values, several on separate lines in the
  data. Field::saved_value maps shown text to saved values for the
  layout and the script tree alike, so scripts read what is saved.
- Password fields are password text fields; signature fields are /Sig
  fields the app can sign.
- Image fields show the picture the data (base64) or the template
  holds; barcode fields show their value as text, with a warning that
  no bars are drawn.
- PNG and GIF pictures (fields and draws) are decoded to Flate image
  XObjects with a soft mask for transparency; JPEGs stay as they were.
  Sizes come from the headers, so layout never decodes; decoding is
  capped at 40 million pixels and failures are warnings, not errors.

Engine: multi-select list values from scripts and data are one per
line. README and parity notes updated (form.xfa-dynamic).

Hardened after an adversarial review pass: picture sizes refused from
the header past 20 million pixels or 65,535 a side, the GIF decoder
given limits (a frame far larger than its screen is refused before
allocation), template pictures read whole up to 32 MB, pictures
decoded once and remembered in the catalog by content hash so
re-layouts reuse them, data pictures that aren't images reported by
field; choice values matched against saved values first, several
values deduplicated and capped, /I ascending and unique, /DV through
the same mapping, <value> children read, the item cap reported; the
reopen path takes another viewer's choice values (several per line);
CMYK JPEGs inverted only with Adobe APP14.
