   cups-filters: Update print/cups-filters to 1.17.9

   pkgsrc changes:
    - Delete patches/patch-filter_pdf.cxx that add support to poppler-0.58,
      applied upstream

   Changes:
   1.17.9
   ------
    - cups-browsed: Applying option defaults from the
      DefaultOptions directive in cups-browsed.conf got
      lost. Re-introduced it (Bug #1414).
    - cups-browsed: Get printer-location field from remote
      printers.  Thanks to Marek Kasik for the patch (Bug #1413).

   1.17.8
   ------
    - foomatic-rip: Change execution of renderer thread to fail
      whenever any of its individual sub-comands fails. Thanks to
      LUUM (luum at chromium dot org) for the patch (Bug #1412).
    - foomatic-rip: Parent process now ignores SIGPIPE calls from
      upstream/downstream CUPS filters, per
      https://www.cups.org/doc/api-filter.html, while correctly
      noting child process failures and exiting
      accordingly. Thanks to LUUM (luum at chromium dot org) for
      the patch (Bug #1412).
    - Build system: Fixed typo which broke the
      "--enable-gs-ps2write" ./configure command line option (Bug
      #1410).

   1.17.7
   ------
    - braille: Add a mirror option for graphical output. Thanks to
             Samuel Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: Rename the internal cups name of the Resize option
      to the standard well-known and well-documented fitplot
      option. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: Add support for margins in graphical mode,
      defaulting them to 15 points (a bit more than 5mm). Thanks
      to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: Updated French translation. Thanks to Samuel
      Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: Add a PPD which generates UBRL output, i.e. Braille
      expressed in Unicode. This is not useful for actual
      embossers, but very convenient to check output to be
      embossed without wasting paper. Thanks to Samuel Thibault
      for this patch.
    - braille: Add virtual BRF backend for generating
      ready-to-emboss BRF files with CUPS, similarly to the
      cups-pdf backend. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: Some tools seem to emit true/false instead of
      True/False, so let us cope with it. Thanks to Samuel
      Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: "make uninstall" did not remove all the
      links. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: Add support for embossing MusicXML files, through
      the FreeDots transcriptor. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for
      this patch.
    - braille: Add proper support for hardware margins on braille
      embossers. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: Fix the disabling of the text margins in Index
      graphics mode. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: Support for direct, structured embossing of XML and
      XML-based file formats (like odt, docx, ...). Thanks to
      Samuel Thibault for this patch.

   1.17.6
   ------
    - braille: Embossers can only emboss integer numbers of 2x4
      cells. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: In Index graphical mode we need to disable the text
      margins, since they come in earlier on the way to
      there. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: Also, we should always add a 1.6mm margin for
      taking into account the width of dots. Thanks to Samuel
      Thibault for this patch.

   1.17.5
   ------
    - libcupsfilters: In the PPD generator for driverless printing
      renamed the "print-quality" option back to
      "cupsPrintQuality" as the support for this option got fixed
      in CUPS (CUPS issue #5090).
    - braille: Improvements on the braille support for bitmap
      images: Moves the graphical dot distance option to the image
      conversion group, add an option to avoid image resize, and
      make the rotation option easier by proposing to just fit
      paper instead of fitting portrait or landscape. Thanks to
      Samuel Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: Support for embossing vector images as braille.
      Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
    - braille: Fix liblouis1.defs installation. Thanks to Samuel
      Thibault for this fix.

   1.17.4
   ------
    - pdftopdf: If the input PDF file contains an interactive
      form, flatten it to static PDF so that further manipulation,
      like scaling, number-up, ... do not let the filled for
      content getting lost. This is implemented by using the
      pdftocairo utility of Poppler and if this fails Ghostscript
      (9.22 or later recommended). This will probably replaced by
      a QPDF-based solution later. Thanks to Tobias Hoffmann for
      the QPDF-based detection of PDF forms (Bug #1315, Ubuntu bug
      #1564249).

   1.17.3
   ------
    - bannertopdf: Make it working also with Poppler 0.58.0 and
      newer (Bug #1408).
    - gstoraster, pdftops, foomatic-rip: Added "-dShowAcroForm" to
      all Ghostscript command lines where the input data format
      can be PDF.  With this and the fix of Ghostscript bug
      #698461 most filled PDF forms should be rendered correctly
      by Ghostscript now.
    - libcupsfilters: Do not check maximum resolutions of
      raster-based PDLs, as implementation was incorrect and
      reliability of PDLs is more important than maximum
      resolution.
