This patch enables math expression evaluation for most of the text input
controls in pcbnew.
NEW: pcbnew text input controls are able to evaluate simple
mathematical expressions, including distance units (e.g. 5.0+(2*1.2mm)).
Don't back up schematic files unless the user requests a remap.
Back up all files that could be changed by a remap including the
schematic file(s), cache library, project file, and rescue library
files.
Use an HTML control instead of a static text control for improved layout
of the user remap prompt.
Improve the user prompt in the remap dialog to make it clear that changes
will be made to project files.
Duplicated aliases were given " (copy x)" suffix. There are two
problems: aliases cannot contain spaces and the string was translatable
which could create more issues. Now duplicated aliases receive "_x" suffix.
Added new file connectivity.i to expose CONNECTIVITY_DATA to
python. enables access to d_pads from nets.
Added typemap to board_connected_item.i. since board_connected_item
doesn't use virtual inheritance, when returning a std::list of these
items, the typemap populates the return list with the child
types. This enables python scripts to use the full interface of those
classes (pad, track, zone)
Added typeinfo.i to enable passing a list of KICAD_T values to methods
GetNetItems. This list acts as a query filter. typeinfo.i is included
from pcbnew.i right after kicad.i (instead of in board.i like the
others) typeinfo.h is already being included kicad.i so to ensure the
typemap(s) are properly applied I put them next to each other.
The two new files (typeinfo.i and connectivity.i) were added to
pcbnew's CMakeLists.txt as dependencies.
Change the legacy schematic plugin to preserve illegal LIB_ID characters
when load schematics prior to version 4.
Check for illegal LIB_ID symbol names during project rescue. Rename and
rescue any symbols with illegal LIB_ID names.
Add static methods to LIB_ID object for testing for and fixing names
with illegal characters so there is uniform code for doing so.
Update the Eagle plugin symbol loader to fix symbol names using the new
LIB_ID fix illegal names method.

When active project flag is disabled, the application buttons are
disabled in the main launcher window. It usually happens when 'kicad'
runs without any project preloaded.
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.

Dragging a full line that is connected to a component
now drags the component as part of the block, maintaining
connections.

The NormalizePath() function always added a trailing separator when
normalizing environment variables. Now it checks an environment
variable for a trailing separator and only adds one if it doesn't
already exist.

NEW: Component Tree widget in the Symbol Library Editor
NEW: Multiple contexts enable switching between modified components
NEW: Cut/Copy/Paste to transfer components between libraries
NEW: Cut/Copy/Paste for symbol graphical items
CHANGE: Redone menu and toolbar in the Symbol Library Editor
CHANGE: Modified a few icosn to make the user interface look more
coherent (new icons: import/export part, new library, add library;
modified: save part)
Removed cut & copy toolbar icons in the schematic editor, as they
were inaccessible. One cannot have an item selected and move the
mouse outside the canvas area due to autopanning.
Added paste icon to the library editor.
Raise() invokes SetFocus() on Windows OS, leading to an API error
(check wxWindowMSW::SetFocus() in wxWidgets/src/msw/window.cpp as
of wxWidgets 3.0.2). In certain cases it leads to a crash.
Tree nodes now have an additional field 'InTree' to determine
if the view is aware of its existence. This way, there is no need
to rebuild the data structures from scratch when they need to be
filtered.
