This is a boyscouting commit to standardize the threading of zone fills.
We do not need to join threads after their completion, instead we simply
allow them to clean up their memory without blocking the user. This
also sets the maximum number of threads that may be created to the
number of zones being filled. More than this will only leave un-used
threads being created and immediately killed.
We also include the connectivity search as a phase in the fill progress
reporter. This was the case before but did not utilize the correct
maxsize, leading to stalled progress bar.

This commit finishes the removal of OpenMP from the KiCad codebase.
Removed in this commit are the OpenMP calls in 3d-viewer and
qa/polygon_triangulation as well as all references in CMakeLists.txt
std::thread is used instead for multithreaded computation

When editing the pcb, Ctrl-Click will highlight a net. This allows
de-highlight with the ESC/cancel action from the selection tool. Inside
the highlight tool, ESC reverts to the selection tool while keeping the

Clang++ seems to be in left-field here as it processes a stringstream
1.0X1.0 >> double as a hexadecimal floating point ('X' character) and
throws an error rather than converting 1.0 and stopping when it reaches
a non-numeric character. This causes errors when exporting step on Mac,
which uses clang++ by default.
Adding spaces to the string is more explicit and doesn't break gcc. It
will be sufficient until we get rid of kicad2step as an external
utility.

The CMake scripts calculate the install path for python scripts by
distutils.sysconfig.get_python_lib(
plat_specific=0,
standard_lib=0,
prefix=''
)
which generates a string in line with
lib/python2.7/site-packages
This string ends up in the CMake variable PYTHON_DEST and is used by the
install step as destination directory for pcbnew.py.
There has been a hard-coded assumption on the content of that string in
PcbNew which is not compatible with FreeBSD 11.1.
This commit eliminates the hard-coded assumption in PcbNew and reuses
the install path as known by CMake.

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.

Snapping while dragging depends on the current net being assigned during

When constraining moves, the cursor snaps to grid but does not

to the nearest snap angle, while the vector length remains unchanged
resulting in a line longer than intended and off-grid.

Eagle files that are edited may be missing required data. While we do
not need to handle these files, we do need to prevent segfaults in KiCad
when reading 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
before the change. For footprints with many elements, this creates
large, slow undo commits as a copy of the full footprint is stored for
each element being edited.
This keeps a single copy of the footprint in the undo stack per edit.
