- in DXF coordinates were using 6 digits for coordinate mantissa:
this is not enough for coord in inches. Now use 16 digits
- Arc( VECTOR2I& aCentre, EDA_ANGLE& aStartAngle, EDA_ANGLE& aEndAngle, ...)
was using integers for coord.
This creates significant errors for start point and end points of the arc.
Now the center is given in double, and its position is calculated from angle end points
(and radius) to do not generate a position error for these end points
(previously the error could be 20 ... 50 nm)

Old PLOTTER::Text is not (yet) removed, but it use negative text size
to mirrored text, which is not really compatible with some plotters (especially PDF).
Using TEXT_ATTRIBUTES is much easy and much better,
so PLOTTER::PlotText() is added.
Note: "old" PLOTTER::Text() is not removed yet.
From master, commit 51d46c0e73
Also moves most navigation code to SCH_NAVIGATION_TOOL.
Also changes page number href to anchor syntax ('#foo').
Also adds hypertext processing to SCH_TEXTBOXes.
Also adds combobox with schematic pages to text properties dialog.
Depending on plotter type and pad type, the plotted shapes were not always the outlines,
but a outline inside the pad shape (due to legacy reasons).
In many cases the plotted shape was in fact incorrect.
(only noticeable for very small pads)
Now the actual pad outlines are plotted without modification.

It avoid trying to calculate arc angles (start, end or arc angle) that
frequently create issues due to reverse Y axis, plot mirrored and/or
angle normalization with different criteria.

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.
Setting a line thickness = 0 for graphic objects (circle, rect, line) is
allowed but creates issues for circles that were plotted a non filled shapes
but having a outline thickness = 0.
