the DIALOG_EXPORT_STEP uses a auto saved copy of the current board to
create the step file (using kicad_cli).
But this file is not associated to a corresponding .kicad_pro file, and
this can create some issues (like the KIPRJMOD not defined)
So create a copy of the current board prj to export associated prj file
to the auto saved board file.

Snapping happens to elements on copper layers but edge cuts is only
_virtually_ on copper layers. We need to set its routable flag off to
ensure we don't force-snap to the snap points
If the whole line shifts, we may have no points of the old tail in the
new line. In this case, we may not only not find the split point but we
may also have fewer points in the new line than were in the old head.
Clamping to the maximum potential point count prevents creating invalid
lines

This prevents crashes when trying to re-evaluate
during destruction, etc. and is a cleaner solution
than trying to keep a flag updated.
It should also be a performance win for very large
documents.
Also implements proper threadlocking for the cache.

This avoids forcing the field to the footprint name in the
library editor, which gets in the way. This doesn't specifically
inhibit the use of the field, and doesn't interfere with fields
users may have set manually (it can be cleared manually if
wished).
Removing the footprint field entirely either from all footprints
or from footprints in fpedit is quite a bit more invasive to
existing designs.

The DRC annular ring width test failed to take into account that a pad
could be contained inside another pad having the same number (thermal
vias for example) which changes the effective annular width of the pad
contained within another pad. A test was added to calculate the effective
annular ring width in this case.
Added some PNS log viewer helper and test code to the PNS playground QA
utility for testing the effective pad annular width code.

When using subsheets with nets that end in the same netname, it can be
confusing in pcbnew to know which net you are dealing with. In these
cases, we show the full netname including path to assist when routing

Placing a limit on the number of values that a field is allowed to hold
makes it blank when we set more than this number. There's not a good
reason to limit the number of digits we allow at the field level (we
round to 4 decimal points in the backend)

(And we already filter all mandatory fields in
pasteFootprintItemsToFootprintEditor() anyway.)
Also, don't nuke a footprint which contains only fields
during a paste.

When editing the board, footprint fields _look_ like text items, so copy
and paste of these items should logically result in a text item, not a
footprint copy.

Circles only use one dimension and we tend to ignore the other in our UI
but it is kept and reflects the previous second dimensional value. When
checking DRC, we should only be concerned with the single value used
unless the pad has two dimensions
