Using footprint rects instead of the larger bounding box means that
reference and value texts no longer influence the positioning of the
footprint in unexpected ways. Treatment of non-module items is
unchanged.
Launching right click context menu overrides the cursor position, so all
actions executed by the tools will be performed in the right click
position. It created an issue, as the overridden cursor settings were
saved into wrong context if there was another tool activated in the
meantime.
Current implementation saves cursor settings for all tools and restores
them once the right click context menu disappears.

PICKED_ITEMS_LIST knows the architecture of the undo commands so
that it can delete those ITEMs which it owns. This represents poor
encapsulation so instead of adding yet another case, I added a
UR_TRANSIENT item flag which is set by callers whenever they create
new objects to “give to” the undo/redo stack. This allowed some
cleanup of other code, but cleaning up UR_DELETE and UR_WIRE_IMAGE
will be a bigger task and have to wait for another day.

The undo/redo operations are essentially the same as for
UR_CHANGED: we store both the origin marker item and a copy
of it and flip back and forth between the two. This also
required the implementation of clone() for the markers.
The ORIGIN_VIEWMARKER is moved from being a subclass of
EDA_ITEM to BOARD_ITEM to facilitate the use of a UR_CHANGE-
like implementation without having to know the internals
of the ORIGIN_VIEWMARKER.
In the command processors, the setting of the origins is
broken into two parts: one for UI-level access which includes
setting up undo, and one for low-level access which does not.
The undo/redo code itself of course uses the lower level.

This commit also adds a no-selection-mode, which allows the user
to specify what gets update (through the various match modes).
The no-selection-mode is accessed via the Edit menu, although
it could also be applied to the context menu.

Rename GetPolyPoint() to BuildPolyPointsList(), because GetPolyPoint() looks like an accessor, but it is not an accessor.
(Using it as accessor can creates a *very long calculation time* for very basic access to polygon vertices)

Fix also option tool "show footprint texts in outline mode" code,
but because there is no code to show texts in outline mode in GAL canvas, this option still works only in legacy canvas
When a rotation/flip command was issued when a newly placed text
was hovering over an existing item - the item underneath would be
affected by the command and the new text would be discarded.

Some actions, such as select trivial connection, don't need the
user to choose which trace at a corner to start from -- either
one will do. Same for moving a simple trace corner.
Likewise, Edit in Footprint Editor shouldn't ask if you mean the
footprint or the pad. Obviously it's the footprint.
This change adds a CLIENT_SELECTION_FILTER which allows clients
to do tool- or action-specific filtering of the selection before
the disambiguation menu is run.
It also removes some tool- and action-specific code which was
in the selection_tool and shouldn't have been.

If the client tool indicates it isn't happy for us to continue
(because, for instance, the user has cancelled the Zone Properties
dialog), then make sure we don't capture the mouse.

This patch adds functionality to the Pcbnew draw tool to show the dx and
dy of the current segment being drawn if the relative origin (pressing
spacebar) is not already set (i.e. if those coordinates are ( 0, 0 ) ).
You can set the relative origin while using the draw tool by pressing
spacebar. The relative origin is reset on exit of the tool.

Improved the selection heuristics to keep footprints in the
disambiguation menu when they contain pads with high pad-to-footprint
area ratio.
In other words: make it possible to select a footprint when
most of its area is taken by a pad. Previously pads were given the
priority, so it was very tricky to select the parent footprint.

To avoid situations when a large footprint covering most of the board
area (e.g. shield connector) is always selected, even when user clicks
in a seemingly empty spot, a simple filter has been added. In case
the footprint area covers more than 90% of the view area, the large
footprint is not selected. This way large footprints do not disturb
editing when the zoom is high enough.

Module placer did not mark the newly placed modules as selected,
but all edit functions (rotate/place/etc.) rely on getting a selected
item. When a rotation/flip command was issued, the newly placed module
was dropped and the one underneath the cursor has been rotated.
To fix this the newly placed modules are marked as selected.
It also simplifies the placer code a bit.

If the object changes between a TA_CONTEXT_MENU_UPDATE
event and a TA_CONTEXT_MENU_CHOICE event (usually as
a result of a cancel), the old code would leave the
last item hidden.

Opening Properties dialog normally does not ask the user to confirm the
action, even for locked items. The exception was a case when there was
nothing selected and Properties dialog was invoked via its hot key -
then SELECTION_TOOL::RequestSelection() tried to get the item under the
cursor, verifying the lock flag.

A change in commit 5731000135 caused kicad to stop allowing users
to move items like footprints, arcs and lines using anchors other
than the center point.
This was caused by the new code that stores reference points for
clipboard pasting, a call to updateModificationPoint() prevented
some old code paths from executing, which caused the selection to
snap into the cursor, always using the center anchor.
This fix moves the call within the if-cases that need it, and adds
a ClearReferencePoint call when the selection is "dropped" to allow
the user to grab the same selection again from a different anchor.

- renamed connectivity.[h|cpp] to connectivity_data [.h|.cpp] so that the file name matches the main class name.
- GetNetItems() now returns a vector instead of a list
SHAPE_POLY_SET: fix crash in VertexCount when it is a empty poly set, or when params are incorrect.
minor other fixes:
warning in degug mode in dialog_dxf_import_base.cpp
pcb_painter.cpp: remove a useless debug line.
- fixed netcode propagation bug
- factored out EDIT_TOOL::m_offset, now selection offset is stored in SELECTION class
- added VECTOR2I-based Move/Flip/Rotate methods in BOARD_ITEM
- added selection of reference point
- added snapping when pasting
- some minor code refactoring
- disabled pasting between footprint and pcb editors due to model incompatibility
-Can paste items from board to module-editor (only module parts)
-Can paste entire modules just as copy
-Can copy items inside module-editor
Known limitations:
-Will crash if trying to paste a module containing module_text inside
the module editor ( dont know why, problem existed before )
-If copying things with strange layer names, the layer names will be
changed.
Now the heirarchical sheet selection feature includes tracks that belong
to a net spanning multiple sheets, but only by doing a logical connection
from the pads of the modules. This is to be able to select connections
between components on the same sheet. For example if the sheet contains a
star power connection or something similar, then most of the sheet local
connections will now also be included.
