Also simplifies groups so that other areas of code that have to know
about them at least don't have to know as much. One of the simplifications
is to not worry so much about empty groups until save time; others are in
the access logic to parent groups.
Also simplifies user model slightly by removing Merge and Flatten
(which are just ungroup/group and ungroup/ungroup/.../group).
Also allows multiple groups to have the same name. This is useful when
using groups for a classification system.

CHANGED: GetDocumentExtents() in 'eda_draw_frame.h' now has a bool
parameter "aIncludeAllVisible" with a default value "true" which makes
it behave as it did before adding parameter. If "aIncludeAllVisible"
is false, the returned bbox ignores some items depending on which
program it is running in.
CHANGED: Made "Zoom to Objects" use only PCB edge in Pcbnew. This
allows text, notes, etc outside the PCB edge to be excluded in the
zoom calculation.
CHANGED: Added "Zoom to Objects" to Pcbnew main menu, and to RMB context
menus for Eeschema and Pcbnew.

The infobar changes the size of the visible screen, so adding/removing
it will shift the screen center, causing the position of onscreen
objects to move up/down. This changes the sizing to pin the bottom
corner position when showing/hiding the infobar
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5776
The previous way of displaying a context menu was being
usurped by the selection tool because it was displaying its
menu before DispatchContextMenu was called, and all other tools
explictly use the TOOL_MENU system.

This issue was also existing when copying to the clipboard.
Saving boards was not affected.
Instead of using canonical layer names, the user layers names were used.
Fixes#5779https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5779
ADDED memberOf() function for DRC rule expressions.
Also fixes a bug in several of the pickers where the event wasn't
being correctly passed.

This changes the file format. All previous copper layers that had a user
defined name are forced back to the canonical name and the user defined
name is stored as an optional quoted string in the layer definition and
only used for UI and plotting purposes. All copper object layer names
are now the canonical name for internal file use.
ADDED: Nine new user definable non-copper layers that can be optionally
added to the board layer stack.
CHANGED: All board layers can now be renamed by the user.
CHANGED: User defined layer names can now contain space characters.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/1969
CHANGED: SCH_VIEW::GetItemsExtents() returns a bbox of all visible items
but ignores the page and border. It was taking invisible strings into
account when calculating the bbox, and now it doesn't. Makes "Fit to
Objects" work correctly with all components that have hidden text.

Note: this is a fairly basic API, you can't retrieve
individual DRC items. This is intended to be a hold-over
until we write the new Python API that can expose full
functionality (since we do not want to wrap the entire
DRC system with SWIG)
