This requires enabling the space key to be bound with shift, which was
disabled based on an overbroad limit of only allowing shift to be mapped
with letter keys
Previously, the count of segments used a magic number optimized for Pcbnew.
This is not good, and does not work well on Gerbview.
The count uses now a max error acceptable is approximation (5 microns in Gerbview and Pcbnew).

Move tool works slightly differently from other tools when figuring out
new locations. This uses the global 45 enable flag to set proper item
locations when the user is requesting a 45° constraint on movement
This standardizes selection tools in SELECTION_TOOL class to be able to
handle a long-click as asking for a non-heuristic disambiguation menu.

This assigns the "Tab" key to a general pcbnew 45° limitation. Limit
can be enabled/disabled using context menu as well.
Removed the user preference for 45° limitation on graphic lines as that
is overlapping with the general limitation, which is not an editing
preference so much as a temporary adjustment to tool action.

When placing a stitching via for a bypass capacitor, it is common to
place it close to the relevant pad. If the via does not have the
correct net, this will violate DRC and be prevented.
Checking for zone-based net assignments allows the workflow to proceed
This function attempted a poor-man's natural compare but it assumed
specific structure of the string. This broke for strings with
numberings that looked like decimals.
Instead, we use our natural string comparison function and remove the
references to this older function and its similar elements.

Moves all of the find dialog control out of the selection tool similar
to the schematic editor. Dialog is also non-modal now to match the
schematic editor.

Seems to cause issues on Windows where the animation locks the screen.
Doesn't effect Linux, possibly because wxWidgets uses a native GTK
infobar that doesn't animate anyway.

Because the same parser is used to read all footprint files of a library,
the parser must be reinitialized (internal variable cleared) before reading
a new file, otherwise the previous parser state is applied to the next file.

The checkboxes for copper layers should probably also be removed
but leaving them for now since they direct the user to the right
place to disable copper layers.
To print pads on tech layers, view layers LAYER_PAD_FR, LAYER_PAD_BK and
LAYER_PADS_TH must be always enabled, and items we do not want print on these layers
must be printed using a invisible color (opacity = 0.0)
