The test suite is shipped separately from the Poppler source code, and
contains many seemingly unauditable PDF files. I don't think removing
all PDFs without a clear license and adjusting the test suite
accordingly is tenable, so I went ahead and removed the whole origin:

I also raised a ticket with licensing@fsf with ID [gnu.org #1851409].
Thanks for the feedback, everyone.
