Previously, we were checking if the selection tool was the top of the
stack but this ignored many other "secondary" tools that might be
running such as the point editor. These still allow the selection tool
to handle events such as clicks. This change allows the selection tool
to handle clicks when it is the primary tool on the stack rather than
the top

This requires enabling the space key to be bound with shift, which was
disabled based on an overbroad limit of only allowing shift to be mapped
with letter keys
Previously, the count of segments used a magic number optimized for Pcbnew.
This is not good, and does not work well on Gerbview.
The count uses now a max error acceptable is approximation (5 microns in Gerbview and Pcbnew).

Move tool works slightly differently from other tools when figuring out
new locations. This uses the global 45 enable flag to set proper item
locations when the user is requesting a 45° constraint on movement
This standardizes selection tools in SELECTION_TOOL class to be able to
handle a long-click as asking for a non-heuristic disambiguation menu.

This assigns the "Tab" key to a general pcbnew 45° limitation. Limit
can be enabled/disabled using context menu as well.
Removed the user preference for 45° limitation on graphic lines as that
is overlapping with the general limitation, which is not an editing
preference so much as a temporary adjustment to tool action.

When placing a stitching via for a bypass capacitor, it is common to
place it close to the relevant pad. If the via does not have the
correct net, this will violate DRC and be prevented.
Checking for zone-based net assignments allows the workflow to proceed
This function attempted a poor-man's natural compare but it assumed
specific structure of the string. This broke for strings with
numberings that looked like decimals.
Instead, we use our natural string comparison function and remove the
references to this older function and its similar elements.

Moves all of the find dialog control out of the selection tool similar
to the schematic editor. Dialog is also non-modal now to match the
schematic editor.

Seems to cause issues on Windows where the animation locks the screen.
Doesn't effect Linux, possibly because wxWidgets uses a native GTK
infobar that doesn't animate anyway.

Because the same parser is used to read all footprint files of a library,
the parser must be reinitialized (internal variable cleared) before reading
a new file, otherwise the previous parser state is applied to the next file.

The checkboxes for copper layers should probably also be removed
but leaving them for now since they direct the user to the right
place to disable copper layers.
To print pads on tech layers, view layers LAYER_PAD_FR, LAYER_PAD_BK and
LAYER_PADS_TH must be always enabled, and items we do not want print on these layers
must be printed using a invisible color (opacity = 0.0)
Add control of project creation to Eeschema; change defaults
to enable project creation in both programs. Properly set
project on newly-created schematics so "Save As" doesn't
get triggered repeatedly.

The lemon parser doesn't lend itself to short-circuiting booleans,
but if we defer processing until we fetch the second value when
processing the TR_OP_BOOLEAN opcode then we get to piggy-back on
C++'s boolean short-circuiting.
1) An earlier 6.0 fix to apply pad clearance overrides to NPTH pads
got broken, so this replaces it.
2) Allow min/max/opt to be set by different rules.
3) Fixes a bug where board minimum enforcement over a local override
didn't get the right message text.
1) Don't wait for UpdateUserInterface to build the (global) list of
layer names.
2) Report clearance resolution between a silk layer and a mask layer.
3) When writing DRC reports, include info about the violating rule.
4) Report "no relevant layers" if we fail to find anything to write
a clearance resolution report about.

When pads having a similar name but some were not on a copper layer
(aperture pads) the net info update from old footprint to the new footprint
was incorrectly transferred. Now, only pads on copper layers are considered.

6.0 will be in the field for a long time, and the better the debugging
tools we have available the less costly it will be to maintain.

KiCad cannot have more than one board/project open, so disallow
the Python APIs for loading additional boards when the frame is
present. Inherit the SETTINGS_MANAGER from the frame when present
instead of creating a new one that won't have the loaded project.
