Some changes (enable/disable a layer) set the dirty bit even for empty boards.
So when closing pcbnew, the dialog asking for saving the board was shown, even when no board loaded.
If the track being routed is unconnected, or the end-point
clicked on is unconnected, allow the connection by changing
the unconnected item to the net of the connected one.

When a new footprint is created, CreateNewModule() added it to a dummy

destroying the just created footprint. Also, the new footprint is later
added with AddModuleToBoard() call.

If a polygon has fewer than 3 points, it is invalid. We need to
register this as failure, otherwise we save the formatting/closing
s-expr for the polygon without the actual polygon points. This breaks
the footprint and board.

While we already cache the loaded footprint files, parsing said files
into the list is also time-intensive. Since the FOOTPRINT_LIST is
already hash-stamped against the current timestamps of the files that
make up the list, sharing a single copy of the list is quite
straight-forward.
The zeroth index is reserved especially for the <no net> tag, so we need

If objects are at the clearance limit, they qualify as passing DRC.
Therefore, all comparison functions that indicate failure should be

PCB_BASE_FRAME::PlaceModule() calls CN_CONNECTIVITY_ALGO::Update()
on the new footprint that does not have nets assigned. The Update()
method first removes the footprint (but it has not been added, so
nothing happens) and then adds it with all pads marked as not connected.
Later, when BOARD_COMMIT is pushed - it tries to add the same footprint
again with nets assigned, but the pads are already registered, therefore
they are discarded.
To prevent this, PlaceModule() does not call CN_CONNECTIVITY_ALGO::Update()
for the just created footprint, as it is handled by BOARD_COMMIT later.
There are a few steps to assign correct nets to zones/track/vias:
- create a net name to pad map
- perform 2 stage netlist update (fix timestamps and then references)
- compare new net names with the previously created net map, save the
differences as a old net to new net map
- remap zones/tracks/vias using the map created in the previous step
The main advantage here is it correctly handles unnamed nets (i.e. ones
without any net labels attached), which might be changed by KiCad
netlist generator.
It's too expensive to fetch the timestamps when the github
server is busy. See Dick Hollenbeck's comments at the top of
github_plugin.cpp for more info.
Also adds some safety to the other caching algorithms after
seeing github_plugin's wild-west usage of the kicad_plugin.

When aligning module centers, it can be hard to determine which item

When aligning in pcbnew, check for pad/module locks before performing a
move and query the user.
When aligning on pads, don't move the pad without moving the footprint,

After Eagle project import, schematic and board netlists are inconsistent:
footprints do not have sheetpaths assigned, schematics are unannotated.
One can update netlist either by references or timestamps, but timestamps
are empty in pcbnew, and updating by reference must by preceded by
annotation which may lead to broken links between board and schematics
(Eagle does not require references to end with a number, so KiCad annotater
will add numbers in such cases).
To fix the problem, there is a two step netlist update:
- update by reference without the annotation step, to assign
correct sheetpaths to footprints
- update by timestamp, after symbols are annotated, in order to
update references in the board
