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
Previously we call only setlocale( xx, "C" ), but it was not enough on Windows.
Now we call wxLocale("C")
wxLocale calls setlocale, but also make some others initialization in wxWidgets.
It fixes some issues related to comma versus point as fp separator.
Especially wxWidgets warnings are no longer thrown, and a one case of incorrect
conversion is fixed.
However, wxLocale( "C" ) also switches the current translations to English, so
loading files can have a slightly different behavior

When printing (using DC context) the bitmap will clear the full screen
unless the clipping region is set to the image itself.

Fixes#1877 | https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/1877
(cherry picked from commit 195c3d074b)
Quasi H or V segments are segments having the same x value or y value
(with a + or -1 max diff) for end points coordinates.
The change is a workaround, not really a fix.
Fixes#3711https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3711
In gbr files, not allowed chars are coded using a 16 bit (4 hexa digits)
unicode sequence.
Previously, it was \XXXX and now is \uXXXX escape sequence.
Changes 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
In some cases it was not working well.
Opengl was using an other algo (using the curve properties to create segments)
Now only the OpenGL algo is used,
with optimization to reduce the number of segments.
The constrained draw was constraining the polygon size to fit the
existing points rather than extending the existing points to fit the
user's intent.
This adds a 90° double-joint for the completion polygon that allows the
user to complete common constrained polygons visually based on the
preview with a double-click to finish.

This set the polygon preview item to wider size and adjusts the draw
order to ensure it remains visible even when antialiasing
(cherry picked from commit ea1c8525ce)
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.
deque structures have higher overhead than vectors. Not usually
problematic, but with hundreds of thousands of characters each with only
a few strokes, the overhead becomes dominant.
(cherry picked from commit 6084614371)
that can generate the same hash for 2 different footprints.
Therefore, for some footprints, the right footprint was not associated to the component.
The hash calculation was using a XOR to combine 2 sub hash values.
This is not a reliable way to combine these hash values.
They are now added.
Looks better to identify similar and different footprints.

* Fix wildcard display in the file selector dialog (on GTK
it would show the regex to the user)
* Move the file extension comparison into a common function
