1) Make them easier to select.
2) Mirror text when flipping to other side of board.
3) Flip around a more "known" point (the text position isn't really
here nor there).

The Wait() function will return a null TOOL_EVENT when the tool
stack is shutting down, so we can't just always pass the event,
instead we must check for null and end the looping if a null
event appears.
It's only needed in PlaceModule() and creates problems here. Also
adds a comment regarding the encapsulation leak that makes all this
hard to maintain.

Also simplifies groups so that other areas of code that have to know
about them at least don't have to know as much. One of the simplifications
is to not worry so much about empty groups until save time; others are in
the access logic to parent groups.
Also simplifies user model slightly by removing Merge and Flatten
(which are just ungroup/group and ungroup/ungroup/.../group).
Also allows multiple groups to have the same name. This is useful when
using groups for a classification system.

ADDED memberOf() function for DRC rule expressions.
Also fixes a bug in several of the pickers where the event wasn't
being correctly passed.

CHANGED: When moving a footprint, Pcbnew was always warping the mouse
to the origin of the moved object regardless of the state of the "Warp
mouse to origin of moved object" checkbox. This MR now honors the
state of the checkbox when moving footprints.

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.
This time remove the push/pop from the picker tools as that's
responsible for the issue of trying to re-activate the move action
when its popped. Instead do the push/pop from the client code
of other actions that need it, and not at all from the move-with-
reference action.

The last remaining threaded operation in dynamic ratsnest was the
recalculation of the dynamic connectivity map. Because we do not
require any of the extra features of the connectivity map, we can get
away with a lightweight move of the anchors to update the ratsnest. The
resulting connectivity tree is not valid but it is not needed for the
ratsnest, which only needs a list of nets/anchors.
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.

* 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: The reset buttons now set the X or Y offset to the current
offset from the reference position. Selecting individual pads as the reference item is now also possible.
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.
Now that the tool framework gracefully shutdowns the tools, graphics
can be created on the stack inside a tool function.
This reverts commit f6881ce3de.
An instance of STATUS_TEXT_POPUP was created on the stack.
But it crashes pcbnew when closing the current main frame,
perhaps due to stack switching in coroutines.
It is now created on the heap.
Default out-of-the-box is no hotkey. Removed all the preference stuff.
Note that the new implementation is a little different: the old one only
operated on a selection with a single item where the new one operates on
all selected items. So if you want the whole track do a 'U' before the 'W'
(or whatever you have Change Track Width assigned to).

This adjusts the fix for 1813038 to focus on the duplicate ghost,
preventing the need to unselect/reselect in every cycle. This improves
large move speeds substantially
This is the behavior of previous 5.1 version.
Using the bounding box has advantages, but unfortunately in many cases the footprint position is moved.
If a lot of flip commands are made on the same footprint, it is moved far from its initial position.
When moving a group of items, the allowed snapping layers should be each
layer in the group, not just the first item's LSET.

The Get and place tool used to live in selection tool and could activate
the edit tool by stacking calls. Now that it is itself in the edit
tool, we cannot stack another call to the edit tool that runs
immediately, instead we allow the GetAndPlace to finish before beginning
the next tool (Move)
The problem is that wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK doesn’t do the key translation
properly. wxEVT_CHAR does, but we only get to that if we skip the
event at the end of the tool’s event processing loop, which most tools
don’t do. (Selection tools, point editors, pickers, and a couple of
others do skip, which is probably why this didn’t get reported earlier.)
I played around with a couple of ways to fix wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK. Most of
them don’t work, and the few egregious hacks I tried weren't cross-
platform.
So I’m changing it so that most tools now skip at the end of their
event loops. I left out a couple that I felt were high risk (length
tuning, for instance). But there’s still enough risk that I’m 100%
sure it will break something, I just haven’t a clue what.

Because the pickers are called with an Activate()/Wait() pair, any
usurping tool gets in between the picker handling the cancel (due
to activation) and the picker client doing a PopTool(). The new
tool is therefore pushed before the old tool is popped.

Includes the addition of an onSetCursor() handler which must be called
from both the GAL canvas AND the GAL backend (at least on OSX) to prevent
cursor flickering between (for instance) pencil and arrow.
Also includes new architecture for point editors which allows them to
coordiate cursors with the editing tools (so we can switch to an arrow
when over a point).
We were running into various corner conditions where a tool's event
loop would exit while the tool was still active, or the tool would
get popped while we were still in the event loop. (A lot of these
had to do with the POINT_EDITOR's, but not all of them.)
The new architecture:
1) tools always do a Push()/Pop()
2) everyone is responsible for their own pops; no more stack-clearing
on a cancel
3) CancelInteractive events go to all tools to facilitate (2)
This checks the movement against a maximum value that would place the
selection outside of the valid area for the footprint or board.

(cherry picked from commit 845833e8fd)
It's a bit of a hack because they're statically initialized and
so we can't make use of the _() macro. We do still want it in the
code, however, because the string harvesting is based off of it.
