Rather than selecting an arbitrary track to snap, we select the closest
track to our point, allowing the via to be placed along the full track
length.

Some microwave inductor lengths cause invalid outputs
for the calculations, which causes jagged outputs.
* If the request length is such that four arcs and no straight
segments is too long
* If the length is such that an N-turn coil is too short, but
an N+1-turn coil is too long. This can happen when the coil
count is small.
This patch doesn't fix the underlying geometric issue here - fixing
the first requires a numerical method, and fixing the second probably
needs an iterative approach. Both of these could benefit from
a refactor.
However, this patch does prevent the tools producing invalid outputs,
which can sometimes be quite subtle mistakes if the "jags" are small.

Phoenix doesn't have the same initialization as wxpython3 and so the
namespace doesn't get the wxApp() initialized to the existing instance.
In python, this is worked around by starting a new wxApp.
Unfortunately, this appears to overwrite the existing global instance
variable. The issue _appears_ to be in Phoenix but for now we work
around it by saving and resetting the instance pointer in the main app.
The downside is that Python likely won't be able to respond to events
from C++

In the past, the ZONE_CONTAINER::GetPosition() member
returned a reference to a wxPoint, in accordance with the
BOARD_ITEM interface. This meant that ZONE_CONTAINER had
to reinterpret_cast a VECTOR2I (its internal position data) to wxPoint,
which was possible only due to fortunate memory layout.
This interface was changed to return wxPoints by value in
commit a4528988ca, and the normal (wxPoint) cast was used instead.
Thus, we can now also remove the dire warnings and static_asserts
used to ensure the now-unused old method was correct.
Introduce the concept of a DRC_PROVIDER which allows
to separate the various DRC functions to their own
areas. This allows, amongst other things, a slimmer core
DRC class, and allows DRC functions to be separately testable.
The courtyard DRCs (overlap, missing and malformed)
are the first victims, so instrumentation can be added to this function.
Add some unit tests on this DRC function, as well a few re-usable PCB-based
utility functions in a library (qa_pcbnew_utils) that could be shared between
unit tests and other utilities.
This separates the "newMarker" functions from the DRC class. These
are moved to a new class, DRC_MARKER_FACTORY, which is now responsible for
constructing suitable markers from BOARD_ITEMS.
The reasons for this are:
1) Allow DRC related functions to access theese functions without having
to bake these functions into the main DRC class.
2) Thereby simplify the DRC class interface
3) As DRC_MARKER is now a small class with public interfaces, it's
possible to put unit tests on these functions.
The motivation here is to allow to start to split out pieces of DRC
into separate classes.
Prior to placing the via, we check if the resulting via will pass too
close to different nets on different layers.

Previously, when the 3D viewer is opened, each board edition creates a 3D view refresh, that usually takes a bit of time.
Now the refresh is postponed until the 3D viewer has the focus.
When creating the zone cutout, we delete the old zone and add a new one
with each cutout. This requires resetting the source zone and clearing
our previous selection if we would like to continue using the cutout
tool on the new zone.

Plotting mask layers, we expand by a minimum width before performing a
boolean add of the separate regions. The boolean add has a separation
condition that includes equality. Since we are looking for the
complement of the mask, we would like the equality applied to the other
side. Removing a unit value provides the separation.

- Added ignore netcode option to CONNECTIVITY_DATA::GetConnectedItems()

When renumbering pads, you can click on a pad the second time to restore
the pad to its original value. This did not allow a user to then place
the removed number on the correct pad (assuming a mistake). This commit

place in the correct pad.

If the user does not build the GITHUB plugin (deprecated), we cannot use

accidental use is caught at compile time.
The config was saving a canvas type EDA_DRAW_FRAME member not always accurately initialized.
And the last canvas opened frame setup was saved, not necessary a frame having a canvas type that can be set by user.
This is a broken feature especially because the footprint viewer has a fixed canvas setting.
No net zones, by definition, do not connect to any other element.

Use the AddFileExtListToFilter() to also generate the
wildcard for "all files". This is because:
* Users can use AddFileExtListToFilter for the all files WC
with the same interface as for any other extensions.
* Users do not need to worry about wxGetTranslation, as the
_() is applied in the same way as the other *Wildcard() helpers,
and it is a function just like the others, so it is consistent
* There is a testable interface to document the expected result.
The test is added.
