Bitmaps are now identified by an enum class instead of by pointers.
Bitmap loading and caching is now handled by a class in common, and
we no longer compile most bitmaps into the binary, so there is no
longer a bitmaps static library.
Instead, bitmaps are archived to a .tar.gz file which is installed
in ${KICAD_DATA}/resources/images.tar.gz
The source PNGs are checked in to Git as the original CPP files were,
so that people can build without the required dependencies to convert
SVGs to PNGs.
Initial support is also added for dark theme icons, although this
is not yet exposed in the GUI.
Stubs are present for multi-resolution image resources, but this is
not fully-baked yet and could use some refinement.
The move tool can stack on others, so when we re-enter the previous tool
this caused another immediate action. We flag re-entry in the tool
stack to check for this and avoid unexpected tool starts
Non-layer elements can be logical centers for the circle and arc tools.
We allow the non-layer to snap for the center points and revert to only
on-layer elements after

These objects can now be used in advanced DRC rules and
not just for keeping things out. Also remove the restriction
that at least one of the "basic" keepout rules must be set,
so that these areas can be used for more advanced rules.

This is a board file format change to account for the new properties.
Also, we now only store the critical information about the dimension's
geometry in the board, rather than storing every drawn line.
The DIMENSION object is now an abstract base, and ALIGNED_DIMENSION
is the implementation that exists today (we will add more dimension
types in the future)
You can now enable and disable snap to grid when drawing/editing across
all apps. You can also tie snap to grid to the visibility of the grid
to allow rapid enable/disable via grid display.
CHANGED: If a rectangle is drawn and the location of the second corner
is the same as another rectangle's second corner, Pcbnew crashes. The
reason is that a call is made to DRAWSEGMENT::GetLength(), but that
function only handles shapes of type S_CURVE and S_SEGMENT. This code
checks if the overlapping end points are from a rectangle and if so
it doesn't call DRAWSEGMENT::GetLength().

ADDED: Allow DXF/SVG graphics to be imported as a group
Also, cleanup the placement routine to allow the edit tool's flip
and rotate routines to be used when placing the items.
This is a really hard problem to get right. This algorithm won't
look quite right if you assemble a paragraph from disjoint text
objects and flip them all top-to-bottom (as it will re-order the
text). But this is really the nature of the problem (and has to
stay that way to correctly flip disjoint graphic items or mixed
text and graphic items). The real fix here is to support text
wrapped in a single text box.

As long as the arc angle stays below <60°, it will automatically choose between
clockwise and counter clockwise. This allows the user to choose the direction

It's currently only supported in the Footprint Editor. It could be
easily added to the board editor (all the code is there), but the board
editor is a little short on room in the drawing tools toolbar.

* Split up the thirdparty code into the thirdparty folder (#3637)
* Create a new kimath static library containing all the math functions
This is part of cleaning the build system for #1906.
Before, if the tools were activated from the context menu,
they would start drawing where the menu item was selected
instead of where the menu was opened.
The problem is that wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK doesn’t do the key translation
properly. wxEVT_CHAR does, but we only get to that if we skip the
event at the end of the tool’s event processing loop, which most tools
don’t do. (Selection tools, point editors, pickers, and a couple of
others do skip, which is probably why this didn’t get reported earlier.)
I played around with a couple of ways to fix wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK. Most of
them don’t work, and the few egregious hacks I tried weren't cross-
platform.
So I’m changing it so that most tools now skip at the end of their
event loops. I left out a couple that I felt were high risk (length
tuning, for instance). But there’s still enough risk that I’m 100%
sure it will break something, I just haven’t a clue what.

This removes unused static function in page layout editor, unused
variable in pcb_painter and restors the gcc unitialized fix for
pcbnew's drawing_tool.
Includes the addition of an onSetCursor() handler which must be called
from both the GAL canvas AND the GAL backend (at least on OSX) to prevent
cursor flickering between (for instance) pencil and arrow.
Also includes new architecture for point editors which allows them to
coordiate cursors with the editing tools (so we can switch to an arrow
when over a point).
We were running into various corner conditions where a tool's event
loop would exit while the tool was still active, or the tool would
get popped while we were still in the event loop. (A lot of these
had to do with the POINT_EDITOR's, but not all of them.)
The new architecture:
1) tools always do a Push()/Pop()
2) everyone is responsible for their own pops; no more stack-clearing
on a cancel
3) CancelInteractive events go to all tools to facilitate (2)
It's a bit of a hack because they're statically initialized and
so we can't make use of the _() macro. We do still want it in the
code, however, because the string harvesting is based off of it.

Two issues:
* Unassigned hotkeys were being passed to WX in the menu strings as
"<unassigned>". WX doesn't recognise this, and prints debug each time.
Unassigned hotkeys are no longer rare or naughty, so we shouldn't provoke
debug spew. Suppress by not appending hotkey strings for actions with 0
(i.e. unassigned) hotkey IDs.
* The zone cutout tool uses GR_KB_SHIFT, not MD_SHIFT. This causes
"unknown hotkey" spew from WX.
Mouse capture end is called by some actions such as save board. This
resets the cursor image but doesn't change the current tool. Resetting
the cursor image during action prevents this.

When using "Place Text" the crosshair was freezing if cancelled before
placing text.
After the crosshair freezes, the next uses of the "Place Text" or
"Add Dimension" caused the crosshair to jump to the screen location
where the previously the crosshair was frozen.
Cancelling the "Add Dimension" caused the crosshair to jump to the

of the "Place Text" or "Add Dimension".

Since we are handling snapping in the grid helper, we don't need to

This ensures that when starting to draw a zone or graphic element, the
preview is drawn in the same color/on the same layer as the element that
will be created. Previously, beginning a graphic polygon while a copper
layer was active would result in the preview being drawn in the color of
the active copper layer.

This introduces a new util function in geometry_utils which snaps a vector
to axes or 45 degree lines. This can be used whenever you want to
snap a vector to these angles, but still want it to stay on a grid.
This snapping is used for the dimension tool and the ruler tool.
This is substantially simpler for two-point tools that the method
used by the line tool, which uses DIRECTION_45.
