This breaks the following functions out to a general-purposed refdes utils
header:
* MODULE::GetReferencePrefix()
* kicad_string.h RefDesStringCompare()
This acheives:
* Slimming of MODULE interface
* Placement of refdes code in common rather than pcbnew
** Testing of this code in qa_common
* Tighter and smaller includes for code that only needed refdes functions
Note: there are failing tests commited (as expected failures). These
are the cause of lp:1813669 and will be fixed as a follow-up commit.
- DIALOG_CHOOSE_COMPONENT has footprint select widget
- FOOTPRINT_SELECT_WIDGET
- FOOTPRINT_CHOICE widget (customized wxComboCtrl)
- FOOTPRINT_FILTER class
- FOOTPRINT_INFO rework:
- FOOTPRINT_ASYNC_LOADER to load without freezing UI
- Rewrite loader threads as queue-driven thread pool
- Make FOOTPRINT_INFO available via kiway
- FP_LIB_TABLE::PrefetchLib
- Access to global fp-lib-table via kiway
- SYNC_QUEUE threadsafe queue template
- Remove KICAD_FOOTPRINT_SELECTOR build option
1. If a footprint filter contains a : (colon) character, then the filter is matched against the pattern <LibName>:<FootprintName>
2. If there is *no* : (colon) character present, then it is matched against <FootprintName>
3. The same behaviour applies for the manual filter string in CvPCB
Also fix incorrect backannotation when footprint names contain spaces (put spaces in names is always a bad idea)
* Fix minor Bug #1349058 Choose component dialog: Search field loses focus after entering a character and internationalize the dialog.
* Fix a subtle bug which prevent eeschema to read the project config file when launched from kicad manager, and when kicad.pro is not found.
* Add code to CvPcb to handle assigning component footprints from the
footprint library table instead of the search path method.
* Add code to CvPcb to allow editing of the footprint library table.
* CvPcb footprint and component panes display fully qualified FPID names.
* Make CvPcb library pane display footprint library table nicknames instead
of library file names.
* Add code to FP_LIB_TABLE object to test the paths in the table against the
list of libraries loaded from the project file.
* Add code to FP_LIB_TABLE to convert assigned footprints in a NETLIST from
legacy format to footprint library table format.
* Split out COMPONENT_NET, COMPONENT, and NETLIST objects from netlist_reader
files and create new pcb_netlist files.
* Fix minor wxListView scroll bar sizing issues.
* Add new token and code to save and load FPID nickname in board file.
* Add new token and code to save and load FPID nickname in s-expression net
list file.
* Add WX_STRING_REPORT object to dump strings to a wxString object.
