This one is primarily about pushing TEXT_ATTRIBUTES in to the GAL
API, but it also includes adding EDA_ANGLE signatures to some trig
routines to ease integration.
Also converts HPGL line types to fixed (rather than adaptive). Varying
the pattern to fit each segment is going to look bad most of the time,
but particularly when stroking arcs or circles where HPGL will try to
repeat it for each chord segment.
ADDED arc, circle and rectangle shapes for schematic. Shapes support
line styles and fill colors.
CHANGED sheet background color in Edit Text & Graphics Properties to
fill color (and it now affects shapes).
Pushed STROKE_PARAMS down into common and moved all shapes to using it
for stroke descriptions.
Changes a dot to be a square pixel (linewidth x linewidth). This allows
the removal of IU dependencies and ensures that a dot is always visible
on screen. Also makes sure that cairo is setting the current linewidth
during its stroke routines

Unused variables in function calls can be commented out. Unused
return variables get a new routine `ignore_unused()` that silences the
warnings with zero overhead.
They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
These aperture macros were previously used but only for chamfered round rect.
They are now also used for custom pads (previously drawn as regions).
They are also optimized, i.e. only one aperture macro is created for a given shape.
(previously, one aperture macro was created for each chamfered round rect pad.)
So now all pads are flashed.
They are used for chamfered round rect pads, and can be used for custom shaped pads.
No actual change currently, but the shape rotation of custom pads and chamfered rr pads
can be now used in gerber plots.
In some macros we are using a circle as primitive (primitive 1).
It needs 4 mandatory prms and one optional (not used by Kicad, always 0) prm.
This not used optional prm can create issues with old Gerber readers, so it is removed now.

This will later enable sorting the items for efficiency, which will then
facilitate things that would otherwise be impossibly slow (e.g.
switching pens)
