You can now enable and disable snap to grid when drawing/editing across
all apps. You can also tie snap to grid to the visibility of the grid
to allow rapid enable/disable via grid display.
You can now choose the behavior of dragging with the
middle and right mouse buttons.
You can also choose which modifier keys to use for
panning and zooming with the scroll wheel or trackpad.
You can also customize the zoom speed, which makes
it possible to have a good zoom experience on a wider
range of input devices.
You can also now zoom by dragging with the right or
middle button if desired.

* Split up the thirdparty code into the thirdparty folder (#3637)
* Create a new kimath static library containing all the math functions
This is part of cleaning the build system for #1906.
The thumb size changes between system versions and (on GTK) render
managers, so hard-coded wasn't working. This gets the actual value from
the system and uses to adjust the range. Changes in the range can also
trigger the refresh.

Commit e10c01aaf didn't work when touchpad panning was enabled.
This commit changes it to only discard horizontal wheel events
when in "scroll mode" rather than "pan mode".
Based on a patch by Adrian Scripcă <benishor@gmail.com>.

Modern mice feature horizontal scrolling capabilities and those end
up being treated by KiCad as regular scroll events causing confusion
among users.
The fix works by discarding the handling of wheel events other than
the ones for the vertical axis.

GTK3 does a fade in/fade out routine for scrollbars by default. This
was problematic as it caused a cascade of full-screen repaint events on
each mouse event. Instead of disabling scrollbars (which only helped
the full canvas), we force the old scrollbar behavior is environmental
variables.
Revert "gtk3: Remove scrollbars"
This reverts commit db43bd82a7.
The application warps the cursor when initiating some actions (dragging,
selecting modules or Find and Move). This warping should not also
trigger the autopan action.

If a Scroll event is skipped, a default handler is fired by wxWidgets.
This default default handler fires 3 wxEVT_SCROLLWIN_LINEUP or wxEVT_SCROLLWIN_LINEDOWN events.
This is not wanted now in eeschema (and pcbnew) because they add extra (unwanted) scrolling.

Under GTK3, the scrollbars fade in and out, causing a cascade of
re-paint events. These cause KiCad to be unresponsive while the repaint
events occur. By default this is 1s fade in 1s fade out but can be
configured by the user/wm.
Area mapping the repaint events to just scrollbar areas will be a good
solution but until/unless that happens the scrollbars in GTK3 are
problematic.
On GTK+3, the zoom events are smaller and faster, so
the trigger the zoom acceleration.
A simple fix is to use the non-accelerated Mac-style
zooming and an appropriate constant. This can be tweaked
further as needed.

GTK3 smooth scrolling is enabled by wxWidgets but not to the exclusion
of normal scroll up/down events. wxWidgets maps these both to the same
scroll handler and will fire them both if they are not handled before
being queued. Testing timestamps allows us to mark and ignore the
dupes.
This is set to GTK3 only for now as it isn't listed as a problem for
other platforms. But it shouldn't cause issues if it is enabled
elsewhere in the future.
The reduces a little bit of WX dependency, and makes
the timing code a bit more type-safe.
Also adds a more testable interface for the accelerated
zoom controller.
This is done to avoid a big chunk of conditionally-compiled code
in the middle of the event function.
Also separates the zoom logic from the WX_VIEW_CONTROLS object
and isolates it in a separate class behind a clearer interface.
Add some simple tests for sane steps on GTK+3-sized scroll
steps.
The only required scroll event handler is wxEVT_SCROLLWIN_THUMBTRACK,
which is responsible for dragging the scrolling sliders. One of the
remaining ones is also called when mousewheel is scrolled (MSW only) and
due to that overrides the new view setting with view settings computed
from the sliders position.
