PJM 829316fad4 Pcbnew #4904 : Import settings from another board deleted internal layers
When importing settings from a board with more copper layers and applying it
to a board with less copper layers, if the user has ticked the checkbox
"Layer settings", then KiCad will delete the inner copper layers.  Only
when the user clicks OK does it then warn that it found deleted items on inner
layers.  The message is too generic and comes after the layers have already
been deleted.

This Merge Request tries to address this by warning them early.  The changes are:

1 - Added code to check if user is trying to import settings from a
board with less copper layers than the current loaded board.  This
results in KiCad deleting inner copper layers.  Now it presents a
warning dialog that explains the current settings will result in deleted
inner layers, and lets the user stop the import process before making any changes.

2 - Made "Import Settings" dialog disable "Import Settings" button
until at least one import option checkbox is checked.

3 - Made "Select All" button on "Import Settings" dialog toggle
between "Select All" and "Deselect All" on each click.

Items 2&3 were added to improve the overall import settings usability
experience.

Maciej Suminski de65ca512f Fixed reference to PCB_EDIT_FRAME in PANEL_SETUP_LAYERS
GetParent() in PANEL_SETUP_LAYERS::TransferDataFromWindow() returns a
wxTreebook pointer, instead of expected PCB_EDIT_FRAME resulting in a
crash.

Jeff Young aab97c8385 Consolidate design rules UI.
Implement new Board Setup paged dialog which includes:
  Layers Setup
  Design Rules
  Solder Mask & Paste
  Text & Drawings

Moves line width and text properties to a layer-class-based
system.  Renames unlocked to upright (which also reverses the
logic).

New Edit Text and Graphic Properties dialog which replaces
Edit Footprint Text and adds layer-class-based editing and the
italic, upright and visibility properties.

Adds Import Settings functionality which allows settings to
be imported from another project at page granularity.

Also UNIT_BINDERizes the dialog and adds editing of pcb text.
