The use of printf, wxLogDebug, and std::err/std::out causes excessive
debugging output which makes finding specific debugging messages more
difficult than it needs to be.
There is still some debugging output in test code that really needs to
be moved into a unit test.
Add debugging output section to the coding policy regarding debugging
output.
This is particularly important to keep the user from having to
enter overly verbose statements such as:
A.Type == 'via' && A.Via_Type == 'buried'
when:
A.Via_Type == 'buried'
is perfectly clear.
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.
It served us (mostly) well for more than a decade. It helped KiCad grow
before the std:: came into decent shape or speed. It was a good little
list.
RIP DLIST 2008-2020
This moves EESchema DLIST structures to rtree. These changes are more
fundamental than the pcbnew changes from 9163ac543888c01d11d1877d7c1
and 961b22d60 as eeschema operations were more dependent on passing
drawing list references around with SCH_ITEM* objects.
The base initialization of EDA_RECT sets a 0/0/0/0 rectangle that
prevents merging properly with valid EDA_RECT. This sets the default to
be uninitialized until the internal data are set.
Also rewrites the PCBNew Find dialog to make use of the above, including:
1) searching in user-defined footprint fields
2) searching in pcb text
3) a history list in the search popup
4) case sensitive searching
5) word sensitive searching
6) the ability to turn wildcard searching on/off
7) better placement of the result when the dialog obscures part of the
window

Due to an interaction with old (<1.59) versions of Boost, the ostream
operator<< for wxPoint and wxSize is requried to use
BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL_COLLECTIONS (the print_log_value<T> function is not
used by this macro until 1.59).
Because these functions are available in Debug builds, unit tests that
use such functions will break when compiled as Release or
RelWithDebugInfo.
The change here is to not disable these functions in Release builds.
Also, the functions are moved to common.h, to go with other generic
WX "polyfill" functions. Although they might be commonly used by the
EDA_ITEM::Show functions, they are not specifically related to that
class.

... and GetMsgPanelInfo.
Step 4 in the g_UserUnit eradication effort.
Also removes a couple of conversion routines that were close
enough to extinction.
(cherry picked from commit c75da51)
Make all trace environment variable strings upper case and prefix with
KICAD_TRACE_ for consistency.
Add Doxygen group for the trace environment variable strings.
