pdf2htmlEX: upgrade and fix problem with poppler

[mojca (Mojca Miklavec)]

I'm attaching a slightly weird patch for pdf2htmlEX. Version 0.11 has been released in January, but that version doesn't yet work with poppler 0.26.1 (#43827).

It seems that the latest version of pdf2htmlEX requires the latest version of FontForge (2.0, #43844) which isn't packaged yet and FontForge has no maintainer.

So I grabbed a version from git somewhere inbetween. An alternative way with more work would be to extract just the relevant patch and apply it on top of the released 0.11.

Upgrade pdf2htmlex to a working version from git (post the 0.11 release)

Here's the error being thrown with version 0.10/0.11:

src/util/unicode.cc:121:40: error: no member named 'mapNameToUnicode' in 'GlobalParams'; did you mean 'mapNameToUnicodeAll'?
            Unicode ou = globalParams->mapNameToUnicode(cname);
