Rather than detaching and re-attaching the layer panels with the
attendant overhead, we keep each panel intact and only update its
contents. Since the bindings are the same, this saves substantial time
on pcb loading as well as when closing the board setup dialog
Added hotkey for cycling through net & netclass color modes.
Added hotkey for cycling through ratsnest layer visibilities.
Added code to display hotkey (if set) on the above and on high-contrast
cycle.

Mac already uses diverse font sizes (for instance, smaller fonts for
radio button groups), and the anti-aliasing is a lot better. The
other platforms need a more limited range of sizes.

In the appearance panel the old implementation doesn't turn the meta-
control "Footprint Text" back on when you switch on "Footprint Value/
Reference" while "Footprint Text" is switched off. This is neither
logically correct nor making the elements rendered correctly (value/ref
swicthes would affects corresponding bottom texts, but doesn't affect the
meta-control).
I didn't find a corresponding GitLab issue around, so I'm not saying
"fixes" here.
(The current one keeps pulling the Kicad Manager window to the front
on OSX.)
I also removed the UpdateUI stuff which was probably causing:

The text areas aren't always redrawn when the window is activated
or deactivated, so we need to force a refresh of the text to ensure
it is the correct font color.
Bitmaps are now identified by an enum class instead of by pointers.
Bitmap loading and caching is now handled by a class in common, and
we no longer compile most bitmaps into the binary, so there is no
longer a bitmaps static library.
Instead, bitmaps are archived to a .tar.gz file which is installed
in ${KICAD_DATA}/resources/images.tar.gz
The source PNGs are checked in to Git as the original CPP files were,
so that people can build without the required dependencies to convert
SVGs to PNGs.
Initial support is also added for dark theme icons, although this
is not yet exposed in the GUI.
Stubs are present for multi-resolution image resources, but this is
not fully-baked yet and could use some refinement.
ADDED a new pin electrical type "free" for internally unconnected pins.
CHANGED the "unconnected" pin electrical type is now represented by
"no_connect" in files and netlists. (The legacy syntax is also accepted
in files.)
