bug#34138: 27.0.50; Delayed display of PDF file images

[Andreas Politz]

I can reproduce this: Opening a PDF in the latest Emacs version requires
an extra redisplay for the image to appear, e.g. by entering the
minibuffer.

I really wish this function would be part of the public API. Or else,
what is the best way to implement a function like
display-buffer-mark-dedicated ?

Right, the function pdf-misc-size-indication assumes the existence of a
displayed image in the selected window.
