Represents the "ID" entry of the file trailer dictionary
object.
It is defined as part of the PDF 1.1 specification.
It contains an array which contains strings, representing PDF
string objects.
This string contains raw byte data. So it looks like a string
but really it is just a wrapper for data.
For definitive details see:.
The ISO PDF Specification, ISO 32000-1:2008 PDF 1.7; Table: 15,
page 43.
The ISO PDF
Specification, ISO 32000-2:2017 PDF 2.0; Table: 15, page 58.
The ID entry holds a two-element array of byte strings forming
the document's file identifier. The first element is set when the
document is created and should not change across revisions. The
second element is updated each time the file is modified.
The document identifier is used by the encryption key derivation
algorithm and by go-to-remote actions to confirm that a link target
refers to the correct document version.
