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.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/11638
Since EDA_TEXT is a base class, we can just force the child classes to pass the correct iu scaled size
ALLOW_BOLD_THICKNESS removed because it's a pre-custom font holdover
Tested on msys2 which is the only place it would have been buggy
CMake seems to share the gdiplus linkage with the other dependencies automatically now
Thread pools are long-lasting executors that have close to zero overhead
when launching new jobs. This is advantageous over creating new threads
as we can use this for threading smalling jobs and smaller quanta. It
also avoids the heuristics needed to determine the optimal number of
threads to spawn
Also implements a uniform mechanism for avoiding auto-scroll after
a prime event or dialog which results in a mouse position at the
edge of the canvas.

Our menu bar code is interestingly complex. But we were throwing away newly made menu items to the void in the cases of constructed on the fly submenus
CHANGED: The text variable ${SHEETNAME} now always represents the name of the
sheet when used anywhere in the schematic editor, including the title block
ADDED: A new text variable ${SHEETPATH} which is replaced with the path to the
current sheet - e.g. "/Sheet 1/Sheet 2".
To ensure backward compatibility, the default drawing sheet now uses
${SHEETPATH}. Custom drawing sheets will need to be manually edited.
Previously, coordinates were clamped to +- 60 inches. It makes no sense to
clamp them at plotter level: max cooed depends on the editor (schematic/board...)
Rename MAX_PAGE_SIZE_MILS to MAX_PAGE_SIZE_EESCHEMA_MILS and use it only for Eeschema.

Avoid excess writes to the project directory to dodge issues with remote
file systems not fully writing data.
wxRename works across disk boundaries (in theory) and falls back to
wxCopy/wxRemove when it fails
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/10747
ADDED: with cmake KICAD_MACOSX_APP_BUNDLE option the user can disable
the macOS app bundle creation when compiling on macOS. This permit to
use/install KiCad like any other *nix platform (/usr/bin, /usr/share,
ecc.). By default, cmake build the app bundle.
If we do a real drag, the timer will be cancelled. If we don't, then
the user is still holding the mouse button down and would probably like
to see the menu. Otherwise it appears the action is dropped.
Mac already uses diverse font sizes (for instance, smaller fonts for
radio button groups), and the anti-aliasing is a lot better. The
other platforms need a more limited range of sizes.

Moving points should not be overrided by disambiguation menu, so we
track where the disambiguation event started and only trigger the menu
if the mouse hasn't moved a full unit in x/y
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/9132
Previously, we were checking if the selection tool was the top of the
stack but this ignored many other "secondary" tools that might be
running such as the point editor. These still allow the selection tool
to handle events such as clicks. This change allows the selection tool
to handle clicks when it is the primary tool on the stack rather than
the top
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/9110
This standardizes selection tools in SELECTION_TOOL class to be able to
handle a long-click as asking for a non-heuristic disambiguation menu.

Creates a script that will fomat the MacOS icons at 80% of the total
size in line with Apple's guidelines.
Script requires Inkscape 1.0 and png2icns (available on Linux boxen)
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7977
This allows us to avoid the monospaced font (along with the tab-stop
handling), and process a <return> as an OK rather than just <shift> +
<return>.
