While not technically allowed, overlapping polygons can be drawn in
pcbnew. Gerber polygons are strictly simple, however, so we need to
fracture prior to exporting to avoid invalid gerbers.
Rather than depend on proper unlocking for each exit, we move the
connectivity lock mutex into an RAII-type configuration that
automatically unlocks on exit.
Layer bit sets get chosen for the layer name, starting with the copper
layers and then the technicals. Additionally, multi-layer pads are
appended with an indicator that additional layer bits are set.

When importing footprints, some are generated with non-standard (e.g.
"mod") extensions. As a last option, we allow the * wildcard to select
these files for import.
Use TesselatePolygon() to draw polygons in Gerbview instead of GLU tesselation, much slower.
Add helper methods in GAL to know if the current GAL engine is Cairo, OpenGL or something else,
useful to optimize drawing code.
This fixes the handling of align/distribute tool when called on locked
items. Locked items cannot be moved but they may be used for the target
of an align/distribute operation.

Instead of a nag screen for locked items, we allow first the unlocked
items to be deleted and then, with a repeated request, the locked items.
This adds a popup cursor window informing the user of the option for
repeating the delete

Simply calling it Alternative Delete was hiding its behavior. This gives
a descriptive tooltip and command name allowing users to more easily
find the equivalent to the "Ripup" command
This updates some of the footprint wizard values to use the default KLC
values for silkscreen, fab, courtyard and text.
Also updates the default QFN settings to create a valid footprint
Make sure the view is rebuilt before selecting the new footprints
so that they're shown only in the selection overlay.
Don't start the drag until the dialog is closed so we don't have
a bunch of extraneous mouse warping.

IsPolygonFilled() replaces the hard coded comparisob with Edge_Cut in code.
For now the polygon is not filled only on Edge_Cut layer.
But in the future, it could be an option for other layers.
Commit 1858b7dca corrected the handling of polygons on the edge cut
layer for board items. This adjusts for the possibility of polygons
in modules on the edge cut layer by applying the module offset/rotation
to the polygon elements.
Like circles, polygons are self-closed elements that define an outline.
This allows them to be used as such for board outlines and cutouts.

This allows too turn it on for work without an additional patch.
Also fix a bug in the disable code - when the SVG is enabled,
allow to select SVG files.
When loading the load using the UI, netclasses and net info are
synchronized to the board object after parsing the file. This needs to
happen automatically when loading the board via the Python interface as
well.

In DRAWSEGMENT polygonal shape: the commit tried to use triangulation (CacheTriangulation) to draw the shape (similar to zones).
It was much faster than using GLU tesselator (one order of magnitude).
Unfortunately, CacheTriangulation() works only with simple polygons, not with any polygon.
And simplifying a polygon with a lot of vertexes is very time consuming.
So using CacheTriangulation() is now removed and GLU tesselator is used as previously.

SVG import need some refinements to be efficient, so it is disable for v 5.x.
Will be re-enabled later.
Enabling SVG import is *only* for developers, not for users.
* Do not compile dxf old files.
* import gfx, gal mode: make absolute placement working.
* Import gfx in legacy canvas: use it and make interactive placement working
* Take imported line width in account. Ensure DXF line thickness is OK.
* handling empty files in legacy mode.
This adds a check for contiguous board outlines to the DRC. It also
uses the calculated outline to ensure that traces are not crossing the
outlines.

Rather than duplicating the connectivity calculations in determining
whether a track is dangling, we utilize the current database to find the
number of connected items for an anchor item when feasible.
Multiple anchors such as tracks still need additional logic.

(cherry picked from commit 50eedcf0b3)
JP notes that there is an issue with comma-based decimal locales and the
SaveSelection that is addressed by having a LOCALE_IO call in a limited
block.
This changed the copy timing of the clipboard and the interaction with
KDE Klipper again. To address this, we isolate the clipboard open call
to the end of the routine and force a round-trip of the clipboard data
before exiting.
Klipper seems to poll at odd times. When we copy to wxTheClipboard
in one locale and Klipper extracts data in a different locale, it throws
an XError. We don't need the extra LOCALE_IO calls as Format() uses its
own LOCALE_IO setting.
