on COSString decryption failure as suggested by Michele Balistreri
> Signature dictionary is not decrypted in encrypted files

> Changes in PDFBOX-2801 and PDFBOX-2469 result in the signature dictionary not
> being decrypted in encrypted files. Because these aren't visible signatures,
> this is noticed only when looking at the signature dictionary in PDFDebugger.
> See also this thread in the dev mailing list:
> https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/pdfbox-dev/201512.mbox/browser
> Example files:
> - PDFBOX-2711
> - 045697.pdf
> - 050289.pdf
> - 070413.pdf
> I hit that problem while wondering what to do about PDFBOX-2729, and wondered
> why the "too good to be true" solution of [~GGlad] worked at all, because his
> solution did encrypt the signature parts.
> I did not find anything in the "32000" spec that the signature dictionary is
> not to be encrypted.
> From [~msahyoun]:
> {quote}
> From ISO32000-2:
> Encryption applies to all strings and streams in the document's PDF file,
> with the following exceptions:
> The values for the ID entry in the trailer
> Any strings in an Encrypt dictionary
> Any strings that are inside streams such as content streams and compressed
> object streams, which themselves are encrypted
> Any hexadecimal strings representing the value of the Contents key in a
> Signature dictionary
