Rebase to qpdf-7.1.1 because of CVEs

Summary

QPDF is a command-line program that does structural, content-preserving

transformations on PDF files. It could have been called something

like pdf-to-pdf. It includes support for merging and splitting PDFs

and to manipulate the list of pages in a PDF file. It is not a PDF viewer

or a program capable of converting PDF into other formats.
