They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
Do not remove footprint objects from list of selected objects when there
are no drawable objects other than the reference and value text.
Increase the minimum size rectangle for footprints from 0.025mm to 1mm
when the footprint has no drawing objects so that it is easier to select
the footprint in this case.
Add some pretty colors to the footprint bounding box and hull outline
so that it's possible to tell the difference between selection areas.

We were discarding shapes too aggressively for having a
larger area than a shape underneath.
Let's also try showing fewer disambiguation menus, in particular
always preferring items on the active layer when the candidates
include overlapping items of similar area on other layers.

Bitmaps are now identified by an enum class instead of by pointers.
Bitmap loading and caching is now handled by a class in common, and
we no longer compile most bitmaps into the binary, so there is no
longer a bitmaps static library.
Instead, bitmaps are archived to a .tar.gz file which is installed
in ${KICAD_DATA}/resources/images.tar.gz
The source PNGs are checked in to Git as the original CPP files were,
so that people can build without the required dependencies to convert
SVGs to PNGs.
Initial support is also added for dark theme icons, although this
is not yet exposed in the GUI.
Stubs are present for multi-resolution image resources, but this is
not fully-baked yet and could use some refinement.
1) Don't remove items from group when the group is being deleted as
well. We need those pointers for undo/redo.
2) Flip the GROUP/UNGROUP undo status when undoing/redoing group and
ungroup actions.
3) Remove PCB_GROUP_T from the rebuild-netlists section. Nothing
about an item's group/ungrouped status changes its netlisting.
4) Add PCB_PAD_T to the rebuild-netlists section. It can probably
only happen in the footprint editor where we don't care about
netlisting, but it's conceptually more correct and who knows what
might change in the future....

Stores a cache of the convex hull similar to the bounding box. Modifies
the hull based on actions to allow complex footprint graphics without delay

This no longer returns the first pad, just the first by pad sort order
in output. The call is not used correctly in pcbnew, so removing to
prevent future misuse
when a footprint contains only texts.
empty SHAPE_POLY_SET creates most of time issues (crashes for instance) when
containing no data.
Ensure the returned SHAPE_POLY_SET contains a minimal hull (a 0.04 mm square)

This attempts to fix performance when importing large changesets from schematics.
The appearance control is a BOARD_LISTENER that would otherwise redraw per item imported which may cause lockups
Also a rationalization of text polygon generators, with the "standard"
version inherited from BOARD_ITEM now giving the bounding box. This
requires callers who want the (much) more expensive stroke-based one
to call it explicitly (and brings PCB_TEXT in line with the was FP_TEXT
already was.

The new shape architecture gives us the opportunity to make text
selection much more intuitive by actually looking at the glyph
shapes. Before text would be selected when you clicked in the
descenders area (which was usually blank given uppercase letters
and digits).

It shows much more detail. Removes some nag dialogs and places
hypertext links in others.
Also fixes the auto-layer-showing to correctly show Edge.Cuts or
F.CrtYd or B.CrtYd for errors relating to them.
