We output a 0 opacity text in the SVG plotter to allow searching. When
this text is changed to 100 opacity, it can show up on the user screen
and so needs to be mirrored to match the stroke font output

(cherry picked from commit b650e4568b)
Some buggy SVG interpreters can't handle 0-length ovals. In this case,
they are meant to be circles, so we can export as circles in our
plotter.

Due to rounding issues, sometimes (especially for rotated pads)
the region (4 segments+4 arcs) was incorrectly closed
1 unit (nanometer) mismatch between start point and end point.
Although it does not create bad shape, its breaks the round rect pad
identification in CAM tools. start point and end point are now the same.
From master.
These pads were plotted as a segment. This is not the right way:
Pads must be flashed or plotted as regions, not painted.
They are now plotted as Gerber regions round rectangle pads.
These regions are similar to flashed pads.
From Master branch, commit de7154e8e.
Previously, the region was a usual polygon with arc approximated by segment.
Using a region with arcs is a better way because it allows CAM tools to
identify this region as a round-rect pad.
Similar to master branch, commit 9cb3333d05.
Previously, for historical reasons, they were added only if
Include Netlist Attributes option was on.
But Aperture Attributes have nothing to do with Netlist Attributes, and good
Gerber files must include them.
From master branch
They are now in a specific block and no longer combined with an other
command.
(combining these commands with an other command (D01 or D02) is deprecated)
Fixes#3677 | https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3677
rect (when not horizontal or vertical), trapezoid and custom shapes are draw as polygons.
The dummy pad used to give attributes is removed, and TO attributes are used in Regions (polygons in Gerber dialect)
This is due to some modifications in Gerber format since the attributes are added in Kicad.
When plotting in Eeschema, various elements may be filled with either
the foreground or background colors. The fill mode is rather unique,
requiring un-stroked pie wedges for arcs and both closed and open filled
polylines.

Note that the comment in line 142 where the scale factor was set had the
correct value to indicate metric (1) but in the actual boilerplate, we
set imperial (0). This has been around for 6-8 years, so it would seem
DXF is not our most popular export.
Note, I initially tried to use '1' to specify metric units but this was
not handled by DXF readers (QCAM, Inkscape). Instead, scaling the page
units to inches properly seems to work.

This was previously "svg:g", but the SVG is declared with only
a "default" namespace, not an "svg:" namespace (looks like
xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" in the svg tag).
This means you cannot use svg: as a NS in the document. It's not
needed anywaY: the default is already correct.
Moreover, mismatching <svg:g> and </g> is always invalid.
Uses existing grouping in SVG output. Sets schematic components as a
grouped element in SVG as well as pcbnew elements per layer.
