ADDED: with cmake KICAD_MACOSX_APP_BUNDLE option the user can disable
the macOS app bundle creation when compiling on macOS. This permit to
use/install KiCad like any other *nix platform (/usr/bin, /usr/share,
ecc.). By default, cmake build the app bundle.
- Wait for end of simulation before return from "C" locale to current locale
(to avoid data files created by ngspice using curr locale instead of "C" locale)
- Do not allow changing signal list to plot during simulation calculation
(avoid crashes)
ngspice updated their function signatures, requiring us to test. They
also don't provide an indicator that the signature is changed, so we
need to test based on the existence of a new version define.

ADDED Eeschema-specific netclass settings including wire and bus
thickness, color, and line style.
Netclasses override individual wire & bus colors and line styles.
If that proves an issue we might look at something more sophisticated
with inheritance.

This file should really be included first from any source file, because it
contains platform specific workarounds.
This also groups includes a bit by source.
Adds a link-time dependency for libngspice, so that other tools may
detect ngspice as a KiCad dependency.
The library is still loaded with dlopen() as it gives a way to reload it
in case of problems. The DLL name is recognized during CMake
configuration and used to load the library at runtime.
CanonicalizeName only adds the lib prefix and .so suffix, so loading
libngspice.so fails until the development package is installed.
MAC/Windows code paths lookup soversion 0 of ngspice as well, as this
is the only compatible version.
The main purpose of the patch is to load libngspice from macOS bundle.
There are also some additional paths that could make Windows developers
easier.

ngSpice frequently ends up a simulation with an error:
"Error: ngspice.dll cannot recover and awaits to be detached"
The only way forward is to reload the shared library and
reinitialize ngSpice.

One cannot call ngSpice_Init() twice without unloading the dll. When calling
ngSpice_Init, we pass a pointer to a NGSPICE instance and thus it cannot be changed.
When any of the callback function is called with a stale pointer everything crashes.
