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.
Happens when right clicking on an item in displayed lists.
The crash was due to a bug in wxWidgets, and the fix is only a workaround
Also remove duplicate code.
Also move courtyard testing flags to BoardSettings API. Both are
still stored in the config until we decide where they go in order
to prevent prematurely disturbing the board file format.

(cherry picked from commit 5399f60)
The general idea is to support user-units inheritance. The
UNIT_BINDER allows wrapped controls to inherit units from their
parent dialog, while KEYWAY_HOLDER and DIALOG_SHIM allow child
KEYWAY_HOLDERs or DIALOG_SHIMs to inherit units from their
parent.
The GetUserUnits() method signature has to move to KEYWAY_HOLDER
rather than KEYWAY_PLAYER (where it makes more sense) as it’s the
only common ancestor of KEYWAY_PLAYER and DIALOG_SHIM.
As long as we'll be using the UNIT_BINDER more widely, it also
makes sense to move evaluation and validation into it.
This commit also provides eeschema’s DIALOG_LABEL_EDITOR and
pcbnew’s DIALOG_TRACK_VIA_PROPERTIES and DIALOG_SET_GRID as
models of how to use the new user-units inheritance, eval, and
validation.

(cherry picked from commit a1d8097)
The old item pointers (which aren't safe to keep around) were
removed in favour of opaque references (void*) which are then
compared against existing items when needed.
Also improves brightening by brightening the whole footprint
(ie: its pads, drawings, reference and value) rather than just
its target cross.
(cherry picked from commit 30e90b0)
Small icons for dialog browse, refresh, and row operations.
Icons in B&W so they don't over-emphasize with respect to other
controls in the dialog.
Layout cleanup for consistency. Removal of the blank space to
left of the fields list in the Global Fields Editor, and addition
of column-sizing-to-list-width.
More even spacing for buttons in html report panel.
Honor platform conventions for action button order and layout.
Move netlist importer to update-pcb-from-schematic algorithm
(display messages and then update instead of "dry run" checkbox)
(cherry picked from commit b21e19d)
For some DRC checks, the location of the marker is not the location
of the first item in the resulting DRC_ITEM, so centering the screen
on PointA of the DRC_ITEM can be confusing.
Make refilling zones during DRC optional to prevent the board from being
changed by changes in the polygon filling. Default to off to prevent
changes by default.

Gal mode: graphic cross-air cursor moved on items when clicking on & DRC error, like in legacy mode.
Make popup menu shown when right clicking on a DRC error item working.
The GTK+ file dialog is case sensitive however it does support regular
expressions. Most of the file dialog wildcards are lower case so only
files with the lower case extensions will show up in the file dialog.
This code adds a method to convert file extensions of any case to the
appropriate (sch -> [sS][cC][hH]) regular expression on GTK+ builds so
all file extension case combinations will show up in the file dialog.
A note to developers: make sure to add a file extension when setting
when setting the default file argument. If you do don't set an
extension, the GTK+ file dialog will happily append the regular
expression as the file extension which is surely not what you want.
There are still a few known places (mostly gerbview) where there are
some complex wildcard code that has not been converted.
