When requesting to move a footprint based on the pad, the pad layers
should determine the snapping. This extracts layers from the selected

Since we are handling snapping in the grid helper, we don't need to
enable it in the cursor position return. This allows the grid helper to
use the frame position while optionally snapping to segments.
Put the cursor and pan control TOOL_ACTIONs in ACTION,
and refer to them in that way.
The handlers are currently identical in Pcbnew and Cvpcb,
and Gerbview (and all canvases) can benefit from them as well
if they are in libcommon. Also saves duplicated code.

This ensures that when starting to draw a zone or graphic element, the
preview is drawn in the same color/on the same layer as the element that
will be created. Previously, beginning a graphic polygon while a copper
layer was active would result in the preview being drawn in the color of
the active copper layer.
Polygon corners were enabled in the footprint editor but the logic
didn't extend to the board editor. This revises the logic to look for
DRAWSEGMENTs and only reference the PCB_MODULE_EDGE_T where needed to
create a new segment in the footprint.

SEGZONE types were confusingly named PCB_ZONE_T. Zones in pcbnew are

Unselecting performs two functions: unselecting and unhighlighting.
Some items may be deselected but still live in the temporary highlighted

without the check.
Commit efdbc91e42 broken the primary
alignment mechanism for maintaining the current point as an auxilliary

This is a boyscouting commit to standardize the threading of zone fills.
We do not need to join threads after their completion, instead we simply
allow them to clean up their memory without blocking the user. This
also sets the maximum number of threads that may be created to the
number of zones being filled. More than this will only leave un-used
threads being created and immediately killed.
We also include the connectivity search as a phase in the fill progress
reporter. This was the case before but did not utilize the correct
maxsize, leading to stalled progress bar.
Repeating find with the same search string would result in a not found
error for absolute search strings. Don't clear the found item if the
search string did not change from the previous search..

We had been deselecting items after calling edits to be safe in case the

valid even when deleting as it is assigned to the undo stack. But it
should not remain visible or selected on the schematic if it is removed.
This tests for removed items by checking whether it (in the case of

When changing elements in the module editor, each element shares the
same parent. Undo commits store a copy of the parent as it existed
before the change. For footprints with many elements, this creates

The general idea is to support user-units inheritance. The
UNIT_BINDER allows wrapped controls to inherit units from their
parent dialog, while KEYWAY_HOLDER and DIALOG_SHIM allow child
KEYWAY_HOLDERs or DIALOG_SHIMs to inherit units from their
parent.
The GetUserUnits() method signature has to move to KEYWAY_HOLDER
rather than KEYWAY_PLAYER (where it makes more sense) as it’s the
only common ancestor of KEYWAY_PLAYER and DIALOG_SHIM.
As long as we'll be using the UNIT_BINDER more widely, it also
makes sense to move evaluation and validation into it.
This commit also provides eeschema’s DIALOG_LABEL_EDITOR and
pcbnew’s DIALOG_TRACK_VIA_PROPERTIES and DIALOG_SET_GRID as
models of how to use the new user-units inheritance, eval, and
validation.

The SELECTION is a std::set. Numerical dereference of item n is O(n) as

If you select a track with many segments (e.g. a length-tuned track) and
then select all connected items again ('U' -> 'U'), we would iterate
over all items in the selection and mark connections for each of the n
segments n separate times.
We avoid this by using the marked flag to show when the segment has
already been visited by the routine. This means that if the segment has
been checked for connections because it was connected to the previous
item, it won't be checked for connections again. However, a selection
that interleaves items from multiple connection segments will still
(potentially) be multiply checked as the BUSY flag is cleared each time
there is one not-BUSY track in the selection.
Circles are defined by center and a point on their edge. This requires
