Well, almost anyway. We can't use a pad attribute for them as
that would change the file format. So they're currently
defined as a CONN pad with no copper layers.
However, when figuring out of existing pads should be *treated*
as aperture pads, we just check for no copper layers.

The colours don't add much in the way of comprehension and they
do add visual complexity. Same for the labels at the top of
the layers list box.
Also improved the grouping to make the presets aciton more clear.

Also includes a bunch of changes to simplifiy the terminology
and unify the copper, non-copper and keepout versions.
Also removes some legacy features:
Removes contol for fill method. If the fill method is currently
segments the dialog will ask if you want to convert to polygons
on OK.
Removes control of boundary resolution. We've done this with trig
since 5.0.

It's time to fix the focus issues. This adds a new SetInitialFocus()
routine to DIALOG_SHIM which will need to be called from a lot of
dialogs.
(cherry picked from commit 6d9647a)
The general idea is to support user-units inheritance. The
UNIT_BINDER allows wrapped controls to inherit units from their
parent dialog, while KEYWAY_HOLDER and DIALOG_SHIM allow child
KEYWAY_HOLDERs or DIALOG_SHIMs to inherit units from their
parent.
The GetUserUnits() method signature has to move to KEYWAY_HOLDER
rather than KEYWAY_PLAYER (where it makes more sense) as it’s the
only common ancestor of KEYWAY_PLAYER and DIALOG_SHIM.
As long as we'll be using the UNIT_BINDER more widely, it also
makes sense to move evaluation and validation into it.
This commit also provides eeschema’s DIALOG_LABEL_EDITOR and
pcbnew’s DIALOG_TRACK_VIA_PROPERTIES and DIALOG_SET_GRID as
models of how to use the new user-units inheritance, eval, and
validation.

During the symbol library table implementation, the legal character
tests for the footprint library table were changed and the forward
slash '/' character became illegal. This change broke editing some
users footprint library tables that already had '/' in library table
nicknames. This change split the library nickname and library item
name illegal character tests.
Options that do not have code implementing them are now hidden from the
user so that they are not searching for ways to enable the greyed out
options. Similarly, when selecting a routing option that disables
free-mode, we show the effect of disabling the mode in the dialog.
Processing enter from within the dimension editor window is only set to

We were trying to handle aOnlyOneFile at two different levels

Previously, the dialog was created only once, with the current board setup and the current units selection.
Therefore, after changes in board or units, the dialog was really broken.
Now, the dialog is recreated when the plot command is run.
As of v5 footprint library reorganization (one repo per library concept
is replaced with a common repo for all libraries), the Footprint Library
Wizard may handle only the old libraries. It has been replaced with
a file browser to select only local files.

Symbol/footprint library and entry have the same set of forbidden
characters with a single exception, space character. To accommodate for
this difference, LIB_ID validation and fix methods have been extended to
specify the LIB_ID type that is checked (schematic/board).
LIB_ID::HasIllegalChars() and LIB_ID::FixIllegalChars() had two different
sets of characters treated as invalid in LIB_IDs. The set has been
factored out to another function to avoid duplication.
The zeroth index is reserved especially for the <no net> tag, so we need
to keep the current net at 1 or greater to keep it connected.

This is meant as a stopgap for 5.0, with plans to add proper scaled
icons in the 6.0 cycle. A function KiScaledBitmap() is added, which
works like KiBitmap() except it scales the bitmap according to the
calling window's font size. Controls have been added to all the main
applications to let the user select scaling manually (these were omitted
from smaller apps that didn't already have a place to put them).
In addition, in eeschema only, the pixel height of the system font is
shown in the options dialog for diagnostics. This is only for collecting
feedback before 5.0 release from users with different displays and will
be removed.
Also, remove a wxPanel border as it makes device-independent sizing
nearly impossible. For some reason wxPanel::GetClientSize() is returning
garbage here and breaks centering text without fudge factors. I think it
still looks good without the border, maybe better.
