You can now enable and disable snap to grid when drawing/editing across
all apps. You can also tie snap to grid to the visibility of the grid
to allow rapid enable/disable via grid display.
Note: this is a basic implementation but it could be
improved once we include bus information in the netlist
and pcbnew can natively keep track of buses and nets
instead of just nets.

* Consolidate the measure tool into one tool (this gives cvpcb
unit changing and snapping capabilities in its measure tool)
* Transition cvpcb to use actions for the sketch modes
* Replumb how magnetic items settings are stored and used
CHANGED: Settings are now stored in versioned sub-directories
ADDED: First-run dialog for migrating settings from a previous version
CHANGED: Settings are now stored as JSON files instead of wxConfig-style INI files
CHANGED: Color settings are now all stored in a separate settings file
CHANGED: The symbol editor and footprint editor now have their own settings files
CHANGED: Color settings are no longer exposed through BOARD object
CHANGED: Page layout editor now uses Eeschema's color scheme
Settings are now managed through a central SETTINGS_MANAGER held by PGM_BASE.
Existing settings will be migrated from the wxConfig format on first run of each application.
Per-application settings are now stored in one class for each application.
The pointer passing for display options is deprecated. This removes the
excess casting as the EDA_FRAME didn't need the base call with no value.
All requests for display options are now returned const and are updated
with a Set() routine after modification.
In Gerbview, this resolves an issue where the display options were not
stored because it was receiving the NULL from EDA_FRAME.
Items and layers that are hidden in the view should not be used as snap
points. This happens in multiple locations:
1) Grid Helper for normal tools
2) TOOL_BASE::snapToItem for router
Resolves KiPro Issue #116

If the layer is not shown, we should not be allowing it's items to be
selected and chosen as the start/end items in the router.
(cherry picked from commit fc1fb7a590)
When dragging, you will seldom want to snap to the original item. This
commit prevents the "size of track" snap to the original item and
replaces it with an auxilary grid origin for the snap. This means
effectively that the snap will happen to grid for the original item
unless the cursor is closer to the original item line than it is to the
grid crossing.

Snap/Grid modifier follow preferences from 05483a06c6. Brings Shift/Alt
modifiers into alignment with drawing tools. Shift modifier still
conflicts when choosing end item with the complete track click-modifier.
This will be addressed in v6 with a larger preference setting.
