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.
