CHANGED: Settings are now stored in versioned sub-directories
ADDED: First-run dialog for migrating settings from a previous version
CHANGED: Settings are now stored as JSON files instead of wxConfig-style INI files
CHANGED: Color settings are now all stored in a separate settings file
CHANGED: The symbol editor and footprint editor now have their own settings files
CHANGED: Color settings are no longer exposed through BOARD object
CHANGED: Page layout editor now uses Eeschema's color scheme
Settings are now managed through a central SETTINGS_MANAGER held by PGM_BASE.
Existing settings will be migrated from the wxConfig format on first run of each application.
Per-application settings are now stored in one class for each application.
Scope: NETLIST_ITEM, CONNECTION_TYPE, ELECTRICAL_PINTYPE,
NET_CONNECTION, NETLIST_ITEM, GRAPHIC_PINSHAPE
Note, the pin type enum had PT_ added to the front to prevent
shadowing of the INPUT symbol on msys2 (see discussion at
c17c9960d8)
This change completely removes the LIB_ALIAS design pattern an replaces
it by allowing LIB_PART objects to inherit from other LIB_PART objects.
The initial implementation only allows for single inheritance and only
supports the mandatory fields in the derived part because that is all
that the current symbol library file format will support. Once the new
file format is implemented and saving to the old file format is deprecated,
more complex inheritance will be added. The LIB_ALIAS information saved
in the document files was move into the LIB_PART object. This change
impacts virtually every part of the schematic and symbol library editor
code so this commit message is woefully incomplete.
REMOVE: Removed the symbol aliases concept from the schematic and symbol
editors and the symbol viewer.
NEW: Replace the symbol alias concept with simple inheritance that allows
a library symbol to be derived from another library symbol.
The highlight color chosen from the system highlight doesn't always show
against the schematic sheet background color. Allowing the user to
customize with their KiCad theme makes it configurable on par with other
colors. This is stop-gap until we get full color schemes from

Currently, this widget doesn't read the common library settings.
This means it doesn't use the configured DPI scaling or anti-aliasing
settings.
Use the ReadConfig method on the GAL options to fix (rather than
only ReadAppConfig).

Move repeated GAL config reading routines into GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS.
THe app-level config is in here already, do the same for the
common config.
This means that the configs are loaded consistently, which fixes
the symbol-chooser preview window, which previously didn't use the
same config routine as other GAL canvases.
Future work could move these functions to free functions that
act on the public interface of GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS to avoid
GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS having to know about wxConfig and wxWindow.

When starting Eeschema, or a frame/dialog using a SCH_DRAW_PANEL, the bg color was initialized too late,
thus creating a flicker or an annoying draw artifact (in SYMBOL_PREVIEW_WIDGET for instance) if a Paint event
is fired before the right bg color is initialized.
Initializing the bg color earlier fix this issue.

The dialog was using a LIB_ALIAS from library cache to show the symbol to the canvas without making a local copy.
Unfortunately, the library viewer is doing the same thing.
Now the GAL is used in Eeschema, a link to the VIEW used by the GAL canvas is stored in this class.
When The selector symbol dialog is used to choose a symbol to display in the Library viewer,
a race condition between the Library viewer GAL canvas and the dtor dialog that destroyed this link in the same instancied class.
Now, the SYMBOL_PREVIEW_WIDGET used in the dialog works on a local copy of the symbol to display.
Split antialiasing options out from display options. Move
antialiasing to common. Duplicate the rest of display options
for Eeschema.
Implement OnSelectGrid and hookup GAL canvas refresh to
SetPresetGrid.
Add Grid Settings... to View menu and move Show Grid from
preferences to View Menu to match Pcbnew.
Adds Cut/Copy/Paste and Revert for footprints; introduces a new
shared Revert Changes? dialog; hooks up Add Library for footprints,
standardizes the Save As terminology.
There's no point in having both Save Symbol and Save Library when
only one can be selected at a time.
Also cleans up a bunch of extraneous icons, and fixes a few
copy/paste errors in menus and toolbars.
Also brings horizontal toolbar in line with Pcbnew and Eeschema.
And updates the EDA_LIST_DIALOG to current practices.
This finishes the removal of the active library concept from the
Symbol Editor (started with the new component tree in 5.0).

std::invalid_argument does not work fine with translated strings as argument for message.
(the translated message is incorrectly or not displayed if it contains non ascii8 chars, at least on Windows).
KI_PARAM_ERROR can be throw-ed with a translatable/translated string (a wxString)
Code fixing Spice device names (prefixing reference with a character
corresponding to the assigned device model type) that was duplicated in
a few places has been moved to a function (NETLIST_EXPORTER_PSPICE::GetSpiceDevice()).
With uninitialized COMPONENT_TREE::m_menuActive there were cases when
application logic erroneously decided to fetch the current library name
from the right click menu selection, even though there was no menu
opened, so an empty string was returned. Empty library name is
equivalent to no library loaded, therefore the save button appeared
disabled.

The highlight colour on some platforms (OSX, for instance)
renders nearly invisible against a white background. However,
wxWidgets doesn't handle background colours on OSX and GTK+.
A separate commit to the new kicad/wxWidgets fork fixes OSX,
and we continue to use the old highlighting on GTK+

Crash was caused by removal of the selected item from the
wxDataViewModel, which was later accessed in
COMPONENT_TREE::GetSelectedLibId(). To avoid the problem, the selection
is validated before regenerating the tree widget.

- Add helper methods for DPI-independent sizes
- Make splitter sashes visible on macOS
- Remove SetSizeInChars() - wx has a built-in way that I missed
- DIALOG_CHOOSE_COMPONENT: DPI-indep splitter sizes
- DIALOG_RESCUE_EACH: DPI-indep default size and sensible HTML window
size
- COMPONENT_TREE: DPI-indep sizing
- DIALOG_FP_LIB_TABLE, DIALOG_SYMBOL_LIB_TABLE
Apparently explicitly requesting a column to be sorted breaks component
filtering on Windows. Without SetSortOrder() call the list is sorted and
filtering still works as expected.

The reason the component tree widget was cleared on Windows is the fact
m_adapter->UpdateSearchString( m_query_ctrl->GetLineText( 0 ) ) is
called on any change of the symbol. But if m_query_ctrl is empty,
m_query_ctrl->GetLineText( 0 ) returns the "hint" (currently the word
"Search") not the actual value, so there is no "candidate" symbol in
list. Using m_query_ctrl->GetValue() returns the actual value and fixes
this issue.

COMPONENT_TREE::STATE used wxDataViewItem to store the selection, but it
will point to a deleted object if the selection was removed. Switched to
storing the selection using LIB_ID as it is much safer to use.
It turns out the fastest way to update wxDataViewCtrl is to nuke the
model and rebuild it from scratch rather than via
ItemAdded()/ItemDeleted() update notifications.

Change all of the component tree helper objects to use LIB_IDs instead of
LIB_ALIAS pointers. LIB_ALIAS pointers are dangerous to use because they
can be deleted in the symbol library editor while the component chooser
dialog has copies of them. With LIB_IDs, the LIB_ALIAS pointer is found
on demand and can be guaranteed to be valid.
Update the chooser dialog to load the symbol library table instead of the
libraries defined in the project file and return a LIB_ID instead of a
LIB_ALIAS pointer.
Modify SCH_BASE_FRAME::SelectComponentFromLibrary() to handle the LIB_IDs
returned from the component chooser dialog.
This was the behavior before the factoring out of COMPONENT_TREE. Moving
the history at the top just required inserting it at the right point;
fixing preselect involved wxEVT_INIT_DIALOG not propagating to the
panel. Simple solution was to move the parts of that event handler to
the constructor as they didn't have to be in an event handler anyway.
