The dialog allows a color selection for each dielectric layer.
However for a "dielectric" defined by more than one layer, the color was handled
only for the first layer, and not for the other sub-layers.
The implementation used to always check F_Cu and B_Cu, rather than
where the via started and ended (which will be different for blind/
buried vias and microvias).
1) The highest priority zone that a via/pad collides with "owns" its
connectivity state. Once set, lower priority zones cannot change it --
and in fact, if they would have connected to it are forced not to.
2) The connectivity state goes with the zone fill state, and therefore
must be saved in the file.
3) Display of remove-unconnected's pads is no longer done in GetViewLOD()
(which isn't called for selected items), and is instead done in PCB_PAINTER.
This allows us to draw the full pad in outline mode when a via/pad is
selected which would otherwise only show the hole.
4) Note that in some cases this will still generate DRC errors -- in
particular when a via nearly collides with a higher priority zone it
won't get "owned" by that zone and may therefore have insufficient
clearance if said zone concludes it's unconnected and a subsequent
(lower priority) zone connects to it (causing it to now become flashed).

Apparently mapping Eagle footprint layers to the KiCad Dwg_User
that were previously mapped to UNDEFINED_LAYER breaks the QA test
and causes the footprint editor to crash when opening Eagle
footprints. This means that the potential data loss issue when
loading Eagle footprints is still in play.
The Eagle plugin layers have to be mapped differently depending on
whether a board is being imported or a footprint library is being
cached. Footprint libraries can bypass the manual layer remapping
step that happens when importing a board.
Please note that when loading footprints in the footprint editor
and viewer, all layers that do not directly map to KiCad layers are
put on the Dwg_User layer so that there is data loss. Users will
have to manually remap objects to the correct layer as required.
This is less than ideal but until the footprint library table parser
supports prompting users to remap unknown layers, it will have to do.

Each pad group is allowed to short nets with other pads in its group.
Legacy footprints with the "net tie" keyword hack will get a single
group auto-created with all the footprint's pads in it.
DRC and the router now allow a track to collide with copper graphic items
while entering a net-tie pad as long as the closest point in the collision
is within the pad.
DRC (and the footprint checker) now check for copper items in the
footprint shorting pads which are not in the same pad group.
