It's currently only supported in the Footprint Editor. It could be
easily added to the board editor (all the code is there), but the board
editor is a little short on room in the drawing tools toolbar.
In rare cases (one known case) sizes of areas used as container when spreading
footprints can become negative, thus hanging pcbnew.
Happens if many footprints are very big (say 80cm).
Now if there is no room to place footprints, some are stacked.
* Split up the thirdparty code into the thirdparty folder (#3637)
* Create a new kimath static library containing all the math functions
This is part of cleaning the build system for #1906.
This update replaces the existing uses of unique pointer creation with
the C++14 std::make_unique call that provides proper memory release in
event of an exception.
It's a bit of a hack because they're statically initialized and
so we can't make use of the _() macro. We do still want it in the
code, however, because the string harvesting is based off of it.

This makes zoom automatique work much better in the footprint
editor, and should improve other things which probably assumed
the bounding box included everything (such as refresh code).
Callers which still want just the module outline should call
GetFootprintRect() instead of GetBoundingBox().
- 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.

BOARD::GetBoundingBox() now directly calls BOARD::ComputeBoundingBox()
and there is a new method BOARD::GetBoardEdgesBoundingBox() used for
call sites that needed to use ComputeBoundingBox( true ) in the past.
This allows COMMON_TOOLS to implement ZoomFitScreen without knowledge
of the BOARD class.
eeschema now supports arbitrary colors for all object types, and
pcbnew does in GAL canvas. When switching from GAL to legacy canvas,
pcbnew will convert colors to the nearest legacy color.
Make all EDA_TEXT data private and rename accessors to avoid function
name collisions in derived classes.
Overload EDA_TEXT's SetTextAngle() and SetEffects() in TEXTE_PCB.
Add support for preserving Reference text position, size, orientation
during a netlist import into a BOARD, as well as the one off footprint
update dialog.
In the autorouter code, the value 0x80 is assigned to MATRIX_CELL, which is
an overflow for a signed 8-bit type. As this type is used as a bit mask,
there is no point in having a sign bit anyway.
