* If possible, support user-pluggable stream filters. This would
enable external code to provide interpretation for filters that are
missing from qpdf.
* If possible, consider adding RLE, CCITT3, CCITT4, or any other easy
filters. (Low priority for 4.1.0.)
* If possible, support the following types of broken files:
- Files that lack %%EOF at the end but otherwise have a valid
startxref near the end
- Files that have no whitespace token after "endobj" such that
endobj collides with the start of the next object
- Files with individual corrupted streams. Just replace the
streams with empty streams or possibly uncompress as much as
possible
- See ../misc/broken-files
