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.

* Create a new inspection tool to hold the measure tool and
the other inspection items
* Move some control functions from the frame to a tool and
rearrange the code to be cleaner.
CHANGED: GetDocumentExtents() in 'eda_draw_frame.h' now has a bool
parameter "aIncludeAllVisible" with a default value "true" which makes
it behave as it did before adding parameter. If "aIncludeAllVisible"
is false, the returned bbox ignores some items depending on which
program it is running in.
CHANGED: Made "Zoom to Objects" use only PCB edge in Pcbnew. This
allows text, notes, etc outside the PCB edge to be excluded in the
zoom calculation.
CHANGED: Added "Zoom to Objects" to Pcbnew main menu, and to RMB context
menus for Eeschema and Pcbnew.

* Frames moved: cvpcb, cvpcb footprints frame, gerbview, pagelayout editor
This also introduces new EDITOR_CONDITIONS that are used to set the
conditions of very common editor settings.
Also, some IDs were converted to tools in the pagelayout editor.
The 'Select Layer:' dialog pops up directly over the dialog with the loaded
Gerbers and hides all Gerber file names. This is just an aid so users remember
exactly which Gerber layer they're working on without having to move the dialog.

The issue for the grid color was due to the fact there are 2 places to
store the color: the color settings and the m_gridColor GERBVIEW_FRAME member.
The worksheet color (color set to RED after a color change in layer render)
is a bit strange: looks like LAYER_GERBVIEW_WORKSHEET and LAYER_WORKSHEET
are both used to draw the worksheet.
ADDED new rectangle graphics tool for PCBNew and Footprint Editor.
Also adds rectangle tool to both Footprint Editor and PCBNew Place
menus.
The Aux Origin tool can come back once we have multi-select toobar
buttons.
Also collapses an unnecessary level out of the auxOrigin and gridOrigin
settings.

The m_auxiliaryToolBar manage controls, not tools, and controls need specific
management after a wxToolbar->Clear() call.
wxToolbar->Clear() does not delete controls, but stop their management.
We can't get all the way there because we can't create pads outside
of modules and the Gerbers don't store any grouping/footprint info.
This change moves us from outputing a via for every flashed item
(some of which don't even have holes) to synthesizing pads from
flashed items using a via (when they have holes) and a copper polygon.
This is much better for SMD pads, perhaps better for regular pads,
and no worse for vias.
Keeping a pointer to the actual file history inside a special
file history menu led to many cases of use after free crashes,
so instead rework the actual file history to add the menu
items.

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.
This also removes vector cover types which do nothing except obfuscate
the underlying implementation.
Mainly changes SCH_SHEET_PINS and CONFIG_PARAM_ARRAY (which will soon
be replaced by Jon's new stuff).
Remove GERBER_FILE_IMAGE_LIST dependency to EDA_ITEM, useless.
GERBER_FILE_IMAGE: replace DLIST by std::deque to store gerber draw items.
Remove dead code
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.
Previously, for instance after modifying preferences or language,
they were rebuilt but the tools state was not set due to a missing call to SyncToolbars() after rebuilding.
