provide the ability to click links within a PDF

Details

    Description

      If a PDF has a rendered page containing a table of contents, often each entry will have a clickable link intended to jump to the correct page.

      For Qt Quick we can probably create a model that provides the geometry, then use Repeater to instantiate an Item (such as a very light translucent Rectangle) for each link, containing a TapHander that invokes some function when clicked to jump to the right place.

      PDFs can also contain links to web pages or to other documents. Whether we need to support this now is TBD. But QDesktopServices::openUrl() is one way to handle web links.
