#10570: allow PDF.js to access canvas (without warning dialog)

As noted by Mike Perry in a comment to ticket:7265#comment:6, the "site is
trying to access canvas" warning is sometimes displayed when viewing a PDF
file in-browser using PDF.js.
As the warning is a false positive here (PDF.js can safely access the
canvas without putting the user at the risk of fingerprinting), access to
the canvas should be allowed without any prompt or warning.
