dropping files to Kicad manager :
*.kicad_pro, *.pro -> open project;
gerber and job files -> open in Gerbview editor;
Eagle and Cadstar files -> open project.
dropping file to schematic editor -> append schematic;
dropping library file to Symbol editor -> add library;
dropping board file to PCB editor -> append board;
dropping library or footprint file to Footprint editor -> add library or import footprint;
dropping ZIP file or gerber files to Gerbview editor -> open files;
dropping sheet file to Drawing Sheet editor -> open sheet.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/11638
Since EDA_TEXT is a base class, we can just force the child classes to pass the correct iu scaled size
ALLOW_BOLD_THICKNESS removed because it's a pre-custom font holdover
Tested on msys2 which is the only place it would have been buggy
CMake seems to share the gdiplus linkage with the other dependencies automatically now
Thread pools are long-lasting executors that have close to zero overhead
when launching new jobs. This is advantageous over creating new threads
as we can use this for threading smalling jobs and smaller quanta. It
also avoids the heuristics needed to determine the optimal number of
threads to spawn
Also implements a uniform mechanism for avoiding auto-scroll after
a prime event or dialog which results in a mouse position at the
edge of the canvas.

Our menu bar code is interestingly complex. But we were throwing away newly made menu items to the void in the cases of constructed on the fly submenus
CHANGED: The text variable ${SHEETNAME} now always represents the name of the
sheet when used anywhere in the schematic editor, including the title block
ADDED: A new text variable ${SHEETPATH} which is replaced with the path to the
current sheet - e.g. "/Sheet 1/Sheet 2".
To ensure backward compatibility, the default drawing sheet now uses
${SHEETPATH}. Custom drawing sheets will need to be manually edited.
Previously, coordinates were clamped to +- 60 inches. It makes no sense to
clamp them at plotter level: max cooed depends on the editor (schematic/board...)
Rename MAX_PAGE_SIZE_MILS to MAX_PAGE_SIZE_EESCHEMA_MILS and use it only for Eeschema.
Fixes#11196https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/11196
Avoid excess writes to the project directory to dodge issues with remote
file systems not fully writing data.
wxRename works across disk boundaries (in theory) and falls back to
wxCopy/wxRemove when it fails
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/10747
ADDED: with cmake KICAD_MACOSX_APP_BUNDLE option the user can disable
the macOS app bundle creation when compiling on macOS. This permit to
use/install KiCad like any other *nix platform (/usr/bin, /usr/share,
ecc.). By default, cmake build the app bundle.
