I'm getting an error when I actually try to populate/download the PDF. There is probably
something wrong with the Request object I'm returning. But this is closer.

There's lots of changes here. I should have committed more often.
Anyway, the gist of it is:
  - General code conversion to Drupal 8 patterns. I've taken shortcuts here and there but mostly avoid that. No idea on the quality. Hopefully, someone can give me some feedback.
  - Two new entity types, FillPdfForm and FillPdfFormField. These
    correspond to the old {fillpdf_forms} and {fillpdf_fields}
    tables. Now they're finally entities, so Views support will
    be possible for those of you who wanted it. I was finally forced to
    do this, and I'm glad.
  - PDF-filling methods are now PLUGINS!!! This means they all
    implement FillPdfBackendPluginInterface, and this basically
    achieves the same thing I was trying to do with the failed
    pdf_forms project. Anyone who wants to add their own
    backend can already do it; the fillpdf_service_backend
    configuration variable is used to select the correct backend.
    It should match the annotation ID. Look at
    FillPdfServiceFillPdfBackend to get an idea of how to structure the
    plugin.
  - Better use of actual entity references. FillPdfForms store a
    reference to their underlying Files instead of just an ID. Same with
    FillPdfFormField -> FillPdfForm.
