It's somewhat common for multiple test-cases to use the same PDF, for example tests for both `eq` and `text` with one PDF.
Currently the logic in `downloadManifestFiles` doesn't handle duplicate test PDFs, which leads to wasted time/resources by downloading the same PDF more than once. Naturally the effect of this is especially bad when downloading all linked PDFs.
Total number of test PDFs downloaded:
- 507, with `master`.
- 447, with this patch.
Using the Fetch API simplifies and shortens the `downloadFile` function considerably, since among other things it handles redirects[1] by default.
Also, the regular expression in `downloadManifestFiles` can be replaced with a simple string function now.

[1] Implementations of the Fetch API should already prevent e.g. redirect loops and limit the total number of redirects allowed.
This appears to have broken in PR 17431, since prior to that the `downloadFile` function returned a string (via a callback) on failure and now we're instead rejecting with an Error.
Converting errors to string drops their stack trace, making it more
difficult to debug their actual reason. We can instead pass the error
objects as-is to console.warn/error, so that Firefox/Chrome devtools
will show both the stack trace of the console.warn/error call, and the
original stack trace of the error.
This commit also enables the `unicorn/no-console-spaces` ESLint rule,
which avoids accidental extra spaces when passing multiple parameters to
`console.*` methods.
This commit changes the code to use a template string and to use `const`
instead of `var`. Combined with the previous commits this allows for
enabling the ESLint `no-var` rule for this file now.
The test helper code largely predates the introduction of modern
JavaScript features and should be refactored to improve readability.
In particular callbacks make the code harder to understand and maintain.
This commit:
- replaces the callback argument with returning a promise;
- replaces the recursive function calls with a simple loop;
- uses `const`/`let` instead of `var`;
- uses arrow functions for shorter code;
- uses template strings for shorter string formatting code.
