This commit also adds a no-selection-mode, which allows the user
to specify what gets update (through the various match modes).
The no-selection-mode is accessed via the Edit menu, although
it could also be applied to the context menu.

Some actions, such as select trivial connection, don't need the
user to choose which trace at a corner to start from -- either
one will do. Same for moving a simple trace corner.
Likewise, Edit in Footprint Editor shouldn't ask if you mean the
footprint or the pad. Obviously it's the footprint.
This change adds a CLIENT_SELECTION_FILTER which allows clients
to do tool- or action-specific filtering of the selection before
the disambiguation menu is run.
It also removes some tool- and action-specific code which was
in the selection_tool and shouldn't have been.

Opening Properties dialog normally does not ask the user to confirm the
action, even for locked items. The exception was a case when there was
nothing selected and Properties dialog was invoked via its hot key -
then SELECTION_TOOL::RequestSelection() tried to get the item under the
cursor, verifying the lock flag.

A change in commit 5731000135 caused kicad to stop allowing users
to move items like footprints, arcs and lines using anchors other
than the center point.
This was caused by the new code that stores reference points for
clipboard pasting, a call to updateModificationPoint() prevented
some old code paths from executing, which caused the selection to
snap into the cursor, always using the center anchor.
This fix moves the call within the if-cases that need it, and adds
a ClearReferencePoint call when the selection is "dropped" to allow
the user to grab the same selection again from a different anchor.

- renamed connectivity.[h|cpp] to connectivity_data [.h|.cpp] so that the file name matches the main class name.
- GetNetItems() now returns a vector instead of a list
- fixed netcode propagation bug
- factored out EDIT_TOOL::m_offset, now selection offset is stored in SELECTION class
- added VECTOR2I-based Move/Flip/Rotate methods in BOARD_ITEM
- added selection of reference point
- added snapping when pasting
- some minor code refactoring
- disabled pasting between footprint and pcb editors due to model incompatibility
- support for background color setting
- removed several global config settings (such as g_Drc_On)
- wrapped most of global config settings in PCB_GENERAL_SETTINGS class
- reorganized PCB general options dialog to clearly mark which options concern only the legacy canvas
- new GAL feature for legacy users: double-click (or E) to change track width available as an option.

- added TOOL_INTERACTIVE::resetTransitions()
- made protected and moved TOOL_BASE::setTransitions() to TOOL_INTERACTIVE
- TOOL_MANAGER calls TOOL_INTERACTIVE::resetTransitions() instead of
setTransitions()
This patch does the following:
* extracts a method to determine the anchor point of the move
* improves the logic of the anchor point determination for selections of multiple objects which do not contain footprints
This patch adds a radiobox to allow the user to select a reference point for
the move. The additional options are: User Origin (set with <space>),
Grid Origin and Sheet Origin (effectively making it an absolute coordinate).
A checkbox is added (where it makes sense) to allow overriding which point
within the component is put on top of the designated coordinate.
