The use of printf, wxLogDebug, and std::err/std::out causes excessive
debugging output which makes finding specific debugging messages more
difficult than it needs to be.
There is still some debugging output in test code that really needs to
be moved into a unit test.
Add debugging output section to the coding policy regarding debugging
output.
CHANGED: Settings are now stored in versioned sub-directories
ADDED: First-run dialog for migrating settings from a previous version
CHANGED: Settings are now stored as JSON files instead of wxConfig-style INI files
CHANGED: Color settings are now all stored in a separate settings file
CHANGED: The symbol editor and footprint editor now have their own settings files
CHANGED: Color settings are no longer exposed through BOARD object
CHANGED: Page layout editor now uses Eeschema's color scheme
Settings are now managed through a central SETTINGS_MANAGER held by PGM_BASE.
Existing settings will be migrated from the wxConfig format on first run of each application.
Per-application settings are now stored in one class for each application.
When Pcbnew's add footprint browser is run up, it constructs
the recently used list without checking for nulls.
Although the DoAddLibrary call does internally check for
null, it's easier to filter these out before placing into
the vector in the first place.
The same logic in the symbol tree is already handled in the
same way.
In this case, the history has a cleared link that created the crash when the dialog tried to select this deleted FootprintEnumerate

When the user cancels the footprint load, we should assume they are
canceling the placement of a new footprint. This also adds sanity check
when populating the list
Fixes: lp:1814181

This issue created memory leak and not working wxComboboxes (for instance after modifying the language selection).
Now, these wxComboboxes are created only once, never recreated.
Also: minor cosmetic enhancement in footprint editor main toolbar
(the save footprint icon is modified if the footprint is saved to the board or to the library)
Be more intelligent about sorting lib tree items. (Footprint
entries, for instance, come out of an already-sorted list.)
Don't recreate menus twice when laoding Footprint Editor.
More pervasive use of WX_FILENAME to avoid expensive calls to
wxFileName::SplitPath() and string concatenation.
For POSIX kernels do all the work on the file-system side so we
don't have to keep converting back and forth between encodings.
Cache the footprint info on disk (in the project).
Move timestamp-generation (and checking) to the filesystem so the
above will be bullet-proof.
Rewrite some wxWidgets classes for performance (see common.h).
This removes the existing constructors so that all parsing must
be explicit and callers are made aware that they need to think
about illegal characters, malformed ids, etc.

Too many external applications fail to touch the parent directory.
Also removes FP_CACHE_ITEM lastMod times and dirty flags as we've
always loaded libraries atomically anyway.
Claws back some of the performance lost by being more efficient
with cache management for sequential calls to Enumerate and then
Load.
