When renumbering pads, you can click on a pad the second time to restore
the pad to its original value. This did not allow a user to then place
the removed number on the correct pad (assuming a mistake). This commit
ensures that removed pad numbers are remembered and allow the user to
place in the correct pad.
When adding an element to a module, we don't need to update the relative
coordinates. Doing so can cause changes when writing to file depending
on rotation and position.

If the user does not build the GITHUB plugin (deprecated), we cannot use
it in our footprint load and should remove the define to ensure
accidental use is caught at compile time.
The config was saving a canvas type EDA_DRAW_FRAME member not always accurately initialized.
And the last canvas opened frame setup was saved, not necessary a frame having a canvas type that can be set by user.
This is a broken feature especially because the footprint viewer has a fixed canvas setting.
No net zones, by definition, do not connect to any other element.

Use the AddFileExtListToFilter() to also generate the
wildcard for "all files". This is because:
* Users can use AddFileExtListToFilter for the all files WC
with the same interface as for any other extensions.
* Users do not need to worry about wxGetTranslation, as the
_() is applied in the same way as the other *Wildcard() helpers,
and it is a function just like the others, so it is consistent
* There is a testable interface to document the expected result.
The test is added.
The local/dynamic ratsnest needs to calculate on a per-pad basis as the

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

Cairo supports antialiasing when rendering but can be slow when set to
sub-pixel mode. This bumps the minimum version of Cairo to 1.12
(available in 14.04 LTS as well as mingw) to support three antialias
settings (fast, good, best) that offer speed/appearance tradeoffs.
This can provide a higher-quality eeschema render as it works on a
per-element basis as opposed to the OpenGL per-screen antialias.
Currently, GAL is initialised to NONE (i.e. off). This causes
issues when Legacy canvas is broken (i.e. GTK3).
This changes the default to GAL Cairo, both in PCB_EDIT_FRAME
init, and in the config load.
Now, when the user starts with no config, they are prompted for
a choice: OpenGL or Cairo, and one of them will be set up, with
Cairo as fall back.
Users on platforms that still support legacy can go to it as normal
from the menu, but it will not be the default in any circumstance.

Where we can get away with lower segment counts (localizing an anchor),
we keep the low-def 16 segment count. Intermediate values and values
that are visible to the user are set to high definition. Most are
simply hints to the inflation correction but where they show, the user
show see smooth lines.
Most rounding operations have been shifted to an absolute error
calculation and the ability to adjust zone segment counts has been
removed in 5.1. The remaining elements that use fixed segment counts
are either 18 (DRC) or 32 (plotting). This aligns the punchout segment
count with the higher (32) definition value
wxChoice centers the selection on GTK. So when switching from a

This make the use of legacy canvas on GTK3 a default-off
advanced config. Legacy is substantially broken on GTK3
and is of basically no use at all to general users on this
platform.
If the program starts with legacy canvas in the config,
it is forced into a GAL mode, as otherwise it could happen
that the user is stuck and unable to get into pcbnew to change

While not technically allowed, overlapping polygons can be drawn in
pcbnew. Gerber polygons are strictly simple, however, so we need to
fracture prior to exporting to avoid invalid gerbers.
Rather than depend on proper unlocking for each exit, we move the
connectivity lock mutex into an RAII-type configuration that
automatically unlocks on exit.
Layer bit sets get chosen for the layer name, starting with the copper
layers and then the technicals. Additionally, multi-layer pads are

IsPolygonFilled() replaces the hard coded comparisob with Edge_Cut in code.
For now the polygon is not filled only on Edge_Cut layer.
But in the future, it could be an option for other layers.
Commit 1858b7dca corrected the handling of polygons on the edge cut
layer for board items. This adjusts for the possibility of polygons
in modules on the edge cut layer by applying the module offset/rotation
to the polygon elements.
Like circles, polygons are self-closed elements that define an outline.
This allows them to be used as such for board outlines and cutouts.

In DRAWSEGMENT polygonal shape: the commit tried to use triangulation (CacheTriangulation) to draw the shape (similar to zones).
It was much faster than using GLU tesselator (one order of magnitude).
Unfortunately, CacheTriangulation() works only with simple polygons, not with any polygon.
And simplifying a polygon with a lot of vertexes is very time consuming.
So using CacheTriangulation() is now removed and GLU tesselator is used as previously.
