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
to keep the current net at 1 or greater to keep it connected.

If objects are at the clearance limit, they qualify as passing DRC.
Therefore, all comparison functions that indicate failure should be
strictly greater than or less than while all comparison functions that
indicate success (in the DRC) should be greater/equal or less/equal.
This also corrects a rounding error at the nm scale and handles

Build pcbnew_kiface files as object target that can then be linked in to pcbnew.kiface and _pcbnew.so

For linux builds only.
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 in pcbnew, check for pad/module locks before performing a

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

Track dragging forces the cursor position, which is still kept when PNS

PICKED_ITEMS_LIST knows the architecture of the undo commands so
that it can delete those ITEMs which it owns. This represents poor
encapsulation so instead of adding yet another case, I added a
UR_TRANSIENT item flag which is set by callers whenever they create
new objects to “give to” the undo/redo stack. This allowed some
cleanup of other code, but cleaning up UR_DELETE and UR_WIRE_IMAGE

The undo/redo operations are essentially the same as for
UR_CHANGED: we store both the origin marker item and a copy
of it and flip back and forth between the two. This also
required the implementation of clone() for the markers.
The ORIGIN_VIEWMARKER is moved from being a subclass of
EDA_ITEM to BOARD_ITEM to facilitate the use of a UR_CHANGE-
like implementation without having to know the internals
of the ORIGIN_VIEWMARKER.
In the command processors, the setting of the origins is
broken into two parts: one for UI-level access which includes
setting up undo, and one for low-level access which does not.
The undo/redo code itself of course uses the lower level.

Now, if not yet opened, the schematic editor frame is created, and shown iconized.
(although iconize it is perhaps not the best option)
It fixes a few (minor) issues (when the schematic editor frame is created, but not shown):
- On OSX the schematic frame is shown as a "ghost" frame.
- If later, the schematic editor is opened from Kicad, a message saying the schematic is already opened is shown.
This is technically true, but unexpected by user.
- If symbols need an annotation, the annotation dialog is opened, can can modify the schematics.
So it could be better to really open the schematic editor frame.
The calculation was made too early, before removing insulated islands.
Note: filling zones with segments is an old option, not very useful:
using only polygons has never created issues in gerber files.
The 3D viewer panel had a default size that was causing sizing issue
with the footprint properties dialog. Set the default size to -1;-1
and set the proportion setting to 1 when adding the panel to the sizer
which allows the panel to file in the correct size.
Fixed some minor control spacing issues in the footprint properties
dialog properties tab.
Please note that is only a partial fix for this issue. There is still
