The floor render in raytracing creates interesting shadow effects but
significantly increasing the processing time for renders and has the
side effect of making the bottom of the board very dark if you simply
flip it over. Making this option off by default, we allow power users
to turn it on if needed for their renders while speeding up the default
raytrace and preventing new user confusion.
In singletop mode, all frames show the "Quit" option in the file menu
and will quit on Ctrl-Q. When launched from the main KiCad interface,
sub-programs show the "Close" option instead and will close with Ctrl-W.
In this mode, Ctrl-Q will instruct the main program to exit.

In some linux configurations, the canvas refresh must be posted before
being handled. Simply requesting the refresh can queue the event,
preventing an up to date GL canvas from being saved.

Use the icon scaling logic and call a toolbar rebuild when the
common settings change (echos the handling in Pcbnew and friends).
Remove an unused function.
The 3D viewer also uses OpenGL, so it also needs to
adjust based on DPI scale factors.
This patch moves the 3D viewer common config code solely
within the 3D viewer, and adds handling of the DPI scale. This
also avoids duplicated logic in PCB_BASE_FRAME::CommonSettingsChanged.
For now, as EDA_3D_VIEWER is not included in the Kiway settings
dispatch, still manually invoke the settings update from
PCB_BASE_FRAME.
The PANEL_3D_PREV gets a similar function to read the config, but
it doesn't have a listener for the update, so it's set just once
at dialog init, just like the existing pan settings.

Add code to parse OpenGL version string and determine if ray tracing is
supported.
Rationalize ray tracing menu and toolbar to have the same behavior so
a single command ID can be used for setting states.

The standard DIM() macro was not typesafe as it happily deferred errors
to runtime that can be caught at compile time. Replacing it with a
generic C++11 constexpr allows for typecasting, comparison and compile
time error checking.
Append the appropriate file extension to the file name if the file name
does not have a file extension. This is a know issue with the GTK+ file
dialog.
Make the last 3D viewer screenshot last file used code more coherent.
Add the 3D viewer main frame trace string to the trace environment
variables doxygen group.
Doxygen comment and other minor code cleaning.

Primary change is to replace most control/window borders with
AUI pane borders. We implement our own AUI border drawing
routine which avoids the ugly one-pixel white frames around
dark canvasses.
Also increases the signal-to-noise ratio of all the pane
creation code in the various frames.
* Refresh the view only when changes are made in the caller frame.
* Allows recreate a new instances when try to open the 3D view from a frame taht is not the initial caller
* Remove duplicate code in kicad frames.
Because of how wxMenuItem decodes the label text, the case of
alphabetic hotkeys is not preserved when displaying the menu. So,
alphabetic hotkeys that use the Shift key must be defined this way.

bitmaps.h was included in nearly every file in the project due to it
being included by base_struct.h
Only about 130 files actually use the XPM definitions defined there, and
many of those already included bitmaps.h themselves, or via
menu_helpers.h. However, touching bitmaps.h would result in over 400
rebuilt files for pcbnew alone.
This commit moves the bitmap-related types like BITMAT_DEF out to a new
header, which is still included by base_struct.h, which is less
avoidable for now, it's it's used in the interface.
The icon list is still in bitmaps.h. This has the side effect that's
it's now easier to automatically generate this file.
Many classes in pcbnew and eeschema needed some functions moved
to the implementaitons from the headers too.
+ Implement sRGB to Linear and Linear to sRGB conversions.
+ Fix an issue in the AntiAliasing adaptive logic.
+ Improves the ambient color use on the shader.
+ Improves post-shader calculation. Fixes the saturated dark regions.
+ Improves the transparency of soldermak material.
* Split and rewrite the preview window and canvas.
* Create a new class for handling the board information.
* Adds new render targets: openGL, legacy, and ray tracing.
* Render targets take full advantage of the new 3D plugins system and 3D cache
for a fast 3D model loading.
* Faster board loading.
* New OpenGL render is faster than the old one.
* New ray tracing render target with a post processing shader.
* Use of new 3D plugins (WRL, X3D, STEP and IGES) and 3D model caching.
* Preview of 3D model while browsing the file name.
* 3D preview of the footprint while adding / align 3D shapes.
* Render of 3D models according to attributes: Normal, Normal+Insert, Virtual.
* Pivot rotation centered in one point over the PCB board.
* Shortcuts keys improved for XYZ orientation..
* Animated camera.
