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.
Now that the tool framework gracefully shutdowns the tools, graphics
can be created on the stack inside a tool function.
This reverts commit f6881ce3de.
An instance of STATUS_TEXT_POPUP was created on the stack.
But it crashes pcbnew when closing the current main frame,
perhaps due to stack switching in coroutines.
It is now created on the heap.
Default out-of-the-box is no hotkey. Removed all the preference stuff.
Note that the new implementation is a little different: the old one only
operated on a selection with a single item where the new one operates on
all selected items. So if you want the whole track do a 'U' before the 'W'
(or whatever you have Change Track Width assigned to).

This adjusts the fix for 1813038 to focus on the duplicate ghost,
preventing the need to unselect/reselect in every cycle. This improves
large move speeds substantially
This is the behavior of previous 5.1 version.
Using the bounding box has advantages, but unfortunately in many cases the footprint position is moved.
If a lot of flip commands are made on the same footprint, it is moved far from its initial position.
When moving a group of items, the allowed snapping layers should be each
layer in the group, not just the first item's LSET.

The Get and place tool used to live in selection tool and could activate
the edit tool by stacking calls. Now that it is itself in the edit
tool, we cannot stack another call to the edit tool that runs
immediately, instead we allow the GetAndPlace to finish before beginning
the next tool (Move)
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.

Because the pickers are called with an Activate()/Wait() pair, any
usurping tool gets in between the picker handling the cancel (due
to activation) and the picker client doing a PopTool(). The new
tool is therefore pushed before the old tool is popped.

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)
This checks the movement against a maximum value that would place the
selection outside of the valid area for the footprint or board.

We had been deselecting items after calling edits to be safe in case the
item was deleted/exchanged by the edit. The item pointer itself remains
valid even when deleting as it is assigned to the undo stack. But it
should not remain visible or selected on the schematic if it is removed.
This tests for removed items by checking whether it (in the case of
first-level BOARD_ITEMS) or its parent (in the case of footprint item
components) remain in the view list after editing. If they are still in
the view list, then we re-select them.

When changing elements in the module editor, each element shares the
same parent. Undo commits store a copy of the parent as it existed

The general idea is to support user-units inheritance. The
UNIT_BINDER allows wrapped controls to inherit units from their
parent dialog, while KEYWAY_HOLDER and DIALOG_SHIM allow child
KEYWAY_HOLDERs or DIALOG_SHIMs to inherit units from their
parent.
The GetUserUnits() method signature has to move to KEYWAY_HOLDER
rather than KEYWAY_PLAYER (where it makes more sense) as it’s the
only common ancestor of KEYWAY_PLAYER and DIALOG_SHIM.
As long as we'll be using the UNIT_BINDER more widely, it also
makes sense to move evaluation and validation into it.
This commit also provides eeschema’s DIALOG_LABEL_EDITOR and
pcbnew’s DIALOG_TRACK_VIA_PROPERTIES and DIALOG_SET_GRID as
models of how to use the new user-units inheritance, eval, and
validation.

Commit complementary to 4f0c9b6b. In case there were multiple tracks

A change in commit 5731000135 caused kicad to stop allowing users
to move items like footprints, arcs and lines using anchors other
than the center point.
This was caused by the new code that stores reference points for
clipboard pasting, a call to updateModificationPoint() prevented
some old code paths from executing, which caused the selection to
snap into the cursor, always using the center anchor.
This fix moves the call within the if-cases that need it, and adds
a ClearReferencePoint call when the selection is "dropped" to allow
the user to grab the same selection again from a different anchor.

* improves the logic of the anchor point determination for selections of multiple objects which do not contain footprints
This patch adds a radiobox to allow the user to select a reference point for

Some grid/zoom tools are left in PCBNEW_CONTROL because they currently

This commit wires up the as-yet-unused "remove alternate" tool action
and uses it to select copper connections (normally 'U') before deleting
segments.
THis also reverses the sense of Delete and Backspace (Delete used to be
'remove' and Backpace was 'remove alt', now it is reversed). This means
that backspace is the key that removes a segment and Delete removes the
track. This is the same as legacy behaviour. Other delete actions are,
for now, the same between Delete and Backspace.

There used to be a number of TOOL_ACTIONs that had entries both in
SetTransitions() and the event loop, which seemed redundant and
troublesome.
Now it is not necessary anymore, transitions setup is enough to execute
associated actions.
The problem with simple deleting VIEW_ITEM_DATA upon VIEW_ITEM removal was
caused by the default copy constructors that copied pointers.
Once a copy of an item was destroyed, the VIEW_ITEM_DATA has been
destroyed, effectively invalidating m_viewPrivData for the other item.
This means that non-top-level tools, for example EDIT_TOOL and
PCB_EDITOR_CONTROL can submit their own menus to the top-level tool's
TOOL_MENU, which will then retain a reference to it and make it
available for the CONTEXT_MENU that is shown.
- Finalize transition to BOARD_COMMIT (removed all remaining uses of PICKED_ITEMS_LIST) and implicit view/ratsnest updates
- Simplified SELECTION class, it now can be directly added to a VIEW
- Removed unnecesary casts and templates
- Introduced C++11 features (range based for, lambdas) where they improve code readability
- Added non-undoable COMMITs, which can be used to propagate change notifications to interested listeners (e.g. ratsnest/view)
Following rev 6627 (git 2777182), if a non-duplicatable item was the object of
