Rather than hiding a single line at once, we align each word in the
string with the approximate location of the output word. This allows
better selecting text in the output pdf

(cherry picked from commit da1707d5ba)
plotter type and pad type, the plotted shapes were not always the outlines,
but a outline inside the pad shape (due to legacy reasons). In many cases the
plotted shape was in fact incorrect. Now the actual pads outlines are plotted
without modification.
From Master branch
Previously, coordinates were clamped to +- 60 inches. It makes no sense to
clamp them at plotter level: max coord depends on the editor (schematic/board...)
From Master.
Changes a dot to be a square pixel (linewidth x linewidth). This allows
the removal of IU dependencies and ensures that a dot is always visible
on screen. Also makes sure that cairo is setting the current linewidth
during its stroke routines

Unused variables in function calls can be commented out. Unused
return variables get a new routine `ignore_unused()` that silences the
warnings with zero overhead.
They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
These aperture macros were previously used but only for chamfered round rect.
They are now also used for custom pads (previously drawn as regions).
They are also optimized, i.e. only one aperture macro is created for a given shape.
(previously, one aperture macro was created for each chamfered round rect pad.)
So now all pads are flashed.
They are used for chamfered round rect pads, and can be used for custom shaped pads.
No actual change currently, but the shape rotation of custom pads and chamfered rr pads
can be now used in gerber plots.
In some macros we are using a circle as primitive (primitive 1).
It needs 4 mandatory prms and one optional (not used by Kicad, always 0) prm.
This not used optional prm can create issues with old Gerber readers, so it is removed now.

This will later enable sorting the items for efficiency, which will then
facilitate things that would otherwise be impossibly slow (e.g.
switching pens)
