There are so many issues occurring in the wild, is that really a reason to hail 
them?

>          Issue Type: Bug

>    Affects Versions: 2.0.22

> The attached document contains an incorrectly versioned 
> OS2WindowsMetricsTable. It's a version 0 table, but claims to be version 3. 
> Due to this, when we try to parse the new fields introduced in newer 
> versions, we hit an EOFException.
> Since this issue does occur in the wild, PDFBox should tolerate it, e.g. by 
> catching the EOFException and resetting the "version" variable to the highest 
> version that doesn't have the missing fields. (Note that the version 
> constants PDFBox checks against are wrong, but that's PDFBOX-5123.)
