Update pako dependency to version ^2.0.2 for better tree shaking

[andreaslarssen]

Describe your idea

From Hopding#689:

Angular11 generates warnings for pdf-lib because of the old module format of pako

Warning: C:\Users*****\node_modules\pdf-lib\es\core\PDFContext.js depends on 'pako'. CommonJS or AMD dependencies can cause optimization bailouts.
For more info see: https://angular.io/guide/build#configuring-commonjs-dependencies

Warning: C:\Users*****\node_modules@pdf-lib\upng\UPNG.js depends on 'pako'. CommonJS or AMD dependencies can cause optimization bailouts.
For more info see: https://angular.io/guide/build#configuring-commonjs-dependencies

Recently pako switched with version 2.0.0 to es6. Would it be possible to update the dependency?
Thank you!

How could this be implemented?

See above

What problem are you trying to solve?

See above

Why does this matter to you?

Optimization bailouts, and prevents us from upgrading to Angular 16 (?)

Would others find this helpful?

Yes

Are you interested in implementing your proposal?

No

Why are you submitting a proposal?

To keep the lib alive

Hey there!

We can do that, but pdf-lib relies on:

• "@pdf-lib/standard-fonts": "^1.0.0",
• "@pdf-lib/upng": "^1.0.1",

Both of them rely on pako 1...

[andreaslarssen]

Right... and both Hopding/standard-fonts#2 and Hopding/upng#1 are dead in the water...

How about forking the dependencies as well?

[Sharcoux]

Ok, let's do that:

• upng is a forked from photopea /
  UPNG.js which, apparently, is still active. We can try to switch to that lib. Can you open a PR there to include the index.d.ts file from Hopding lib in the project and in the package.json?
• standard-fonts seems dead in both the original and Hopding trees. Can you fork it and try to release it? We can switch to your tree

[andreaslarssen]

I'm currently working for a client that uses this package, so I would have to ask them about spending my time on the upng-package. As for the standard-fonts package, I would not be able to maintain this over time, so it seems like a bad idea for me to fork it. Maybe someone who's more invested in the package could do it?

[Sharcoux]

Would your client be able to maintain it?

[andreaslarssen]

I really doubt that's going to happen

[DineshSolanki]

I just published a standard-fonts package with updated dependency, mind trying it out

@andreaslarssen @DineshSolanki Can someone open a PR on UPNG.js to upgrade pako, or at least open an issue explaining the problem? This way we don't need to open and maintain yet another fork.

Will this PR solve it?
