Between the time the user loads the footprint preview in cvpcb or Add
Footprint in pcbnew, we don't need to verify cache integrity to display
the footprint. We use the cache copy when displaying until we close the
selection window and re-open. This limits our need to iterate over the
full directory on every footprint display.
Alternate solutions for v7 should include looking into libfswatch for
change detection
Add a reset button that will only show up if the user
edits the JSON configuration for grids. This is a temporary
measure until we have a real grid editor GUI in V7.

Also don't load the footprints up front. The whole purpose of the
footprint-info stuff is to have enough info about the footprints to
filter them *without* loading. After that just load individual
footprints as we need them.

- remove outdated code or comment coming from old drawing code using wxDC
- move zoom values lists to zoom_defines.h
- fix incorrect zoom max and min values (gal scaling factor limits).
This ensures the colors used by the status text pane in the preview
widget are the same as the canvas, so there is a seemless transition
between the two.
Additionally, remove the scrollbars from the symbol preview widget
in the place symbol dialog - they are pointless.
Also fixes an issue where if Pcbnew wasn't run before the symbol
chooser (with the footprint preview active) you'd get no grids (and
a crash on non-OSX platforms).

Migrate COLOR_SETTINGS 0->1 to remove fpedit section
Migrate FOOTPRINT_EDITOR_SETTINGS 0->1 to use new theme if created
Remove COLOR_CONTEXT that is no longer needed
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.
Move repeated GAL config reading routines into GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS.
THe app-level config is in here already, do the same for the
common config.
This means that the configs are loaded consistently, which fixes
the symbol-chooser preview window, which previously didn't use the
same config routine as other GAL canvases.
Future work could move these functions to free functions that
act on the public interface of GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS to avoid
GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS having to know about wxConfig and wxWindow.
Fixes: lp:1824524

Previously, the GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS object in FOOTPRINT_PREVIEW_PANEL::New
was passed by reference in the ctor, down to EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL, which stored
it as a reference. The object in New() then goes out of scope, so the
referencing panel outlives the options.
Fix this by making a copy in a std::unique_ptr of the options, and giving
ownership to the panel.
There is another issue here: when the Pcbnew options are copies, the
OBSERVABLE subscriber list is copied too. This means if the panel called
NotifyChanged() on the options, Pcbnew would get updates, even though a copy
of the options changed. However, the panel doesn't change the options or
notify, so it's OK for now.
Cairo supports antialiasing when rendering but can be slow when set to
sub-pixel mode. This bumps the minimum version of Cairo to 1.12
(available in 14.04 LTS as well as mingw) to support three antialias
settings (fast, good, best) that offer speed/appearance tradeoffs.
This can provide a higher-quality eeschema render as it works on a
per-element basis as opposed to the OpenGL per-screen antialias.
Add Display Settings to Footprint Browser.
Make each of them OpenGL on OSX and Cairo on other platforms.
Allow auto-zoom to be turned off and save last zoom setting.
Make ordering of tools in htoolbar consistent.
Standardize grid and zoom drop-downs.

fp viewer uses the default colors, because it has no color setup dialog.
class_colors_design_settings: remove not used members.
Fix issue in modedit: the color config was never read.
- support for background color setting
- removed several global config settings (such as g_Drc_On)
- wrapped most of global config settings in PCB_GENERAL_SETTINGS class
- reorganized PCB general options dialog to clearly mark which options concern only the legacy canvas
- new GAL feature for legacy users: double-click (or E) to change track width available as an option.

- Pull out compound widget bits into FOOTPRINT_PREVIEW_WIDGET
- Move all pcbnew-specific bits *inside* pcbnew; implementation should
be private for users
- Make a few class members and inner types private
