According to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/window/requestAnimationFrame#Browser_compatibility and https://caniuse.com/#feat=requestanimationframe, the browsers we intend to support with PDF.js version 2.0 should all have native
requestAnimationFrame
support.Note that the reason for indiscriminately polyfilling
requestAnimationFrame
in iOS, see PR #4961, was apparently because of a bug in iOS 6.However, according to Wikipedia: "Support for iOS 8 ended in 2017.", hence the lowest version currently supported is iOS 9.
@yurydelendik Are you OK with simply removing this now?
