It avoid including these extensions in a translatable string, thus avoid breaking filter
if the translation is incorrect (It happens sometimes).
See wildcards_and_files_ext.cpp for use.
If a page layout contains bitmaps and is used in all sheets of a hierarchy, and in the board editor,
the cross-probing from pcbnew to eeschema invalidate textures associated to these shared bitmaps,
when switching active sheets.
Usually a crash happens after switching or when closing editors.
As a workaround, I disabled bitmaps (therefore associated textures) cache.
Not optimal, but at least it avoid crashes.
The wrong class is called for the ctor of the wxConfigBase - this should
be a wxFileConfig, just like the bare new used to be.

This make the use of legacy canvas on GTK3 a default-off
advanced config. Legacy is substantially broken on GTK3
and is of basically no use at all to general users on this
platform.
If the program starts with legacy canvas in the config,
it is forced into a GAL mode, as otherwise it could happen
that the user is stuck and unable to get into pcbnew to change
the setting.

This can be used for "advanced" options which are for developers
to use for feature-flags and other configuration. Run time config
has some advantages over preprocessor defines:
* Can be changed without recompilation
* Sensitive to XDG_CONFIG_DIR, so flipping configs is easy
* Better compiler coverage (less conditionally compiled code means
less chance to break a different configuration). Also better
analysis coverage.
* Type safe config params
* Centralised documentation: it's in doxygen, in one place
No advanced config should be required by a general users. If a general
user does use one of these configs, it's probably because:
* There is a bug and one of these configs is a workaround
* A config in here is generally useful and should be moved into the
relevant application config and given UI.
For now, the config is read-only, and is read from the
"kicad_advanced" config file in the normal config dir.
The fracture() call may result in zero polygons remaining, which will
cause failure in our tesselation routine, so we need to check whether
this is a valid POLYGON before re-tesselating.
Tesselation can fail for a number of reasons. When this happens, we set
the triangulationValid flag to false to prevent using the broken
triangulation. This will fall back to the slow OpenGL triangulation
when DrawPolygon is called.
Use TesselatePolygon() to draw polygons in Gerbview instead of GLU tesselation, much slower.
Add helper methods in GAL to know if the current GAL engine is Cairo, OpenGL or something else,
useful to optimize drawing code.
Graphic lines and polygons are drawn to fit specific areas for which it
is helpful to have the endpoint controlled by the cursor even when
constraining the angle.

Append the appropriate file extension to the file name if the file name
does not have a file extension. This is a know issue with the GTK+ file
dialog.
Make the last 3D viewer screenshot last file used code more coherent.
Add the 3D viewer main frame trace string to the trace environment
variables doxygen group.

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 libeval grammar can now be rebuilt with "make libeval_grammar".
This is only possible when lemon is installed.
Also a couple of modifications to the lemon grammar to
account for external changes since the grammer was last generated.
Also move the grammar defines into grammar.h - this is how
Lemon produces them, and by manually copying into the target .cpp,
it make automated regeneration impossible.
This adds a check for contiguous board outlines to the DRC. It also
uses the calculated outline to ensure that traces are not crossing the
outlines.
