Deselection by clicking on a zone makes working with plane zones easier
by allowing the selected item to de-selected by clicking on a zone.
Once the selection is cleared, the zone may be re-selected as normal.
Clicking on non-zone items while a separate item is selected will still
select the new non-zone item without requiring a second click.
This shows the snap indicator even when the item we are snapping to
occurs on a grid point, giving the user an indication that the point is
correctly connected.
Many items require precise, non-grid movement. Adding the ability to
flag a non-grid option will permit this behavior.

Unselecting performs two functions: unselecting and unhighlighting.

This is a boyscouting commit to standardize the threading of zone fills.
We do not need to join threads after their completion, instead we simply
allow them to clean up their memory without blocking the user. This

We also include the connectivity search as a phase in the fill progress

The GetUserUnits() method signature has to move to KEYWAY_HOLDER

If you select a track with many segments (e.g. a length-tuned track) and

over all items in the selection and mark connections for each of the n
segments n separate times.
We avoid this by using the marked flag to show when the segment has
already been visited by the routine. This means that if the segment has
been checked for connections because it was connected to the previous
item, it won't be checked for connections again. However, a selection
that interleaves items from multiple connection segments will still
(potentially) be multiply checked as the BUSY flag is cleared each time
there is one not-BUSY track in the selection.

(because, for instance, the user has cancelled the Zone Properties
dialog), then make sure we don't capture the mouse.

This patch adds functionality to the Pcbnew draw tool to show the dx and
dy of the current segment being drawn if the relative origin (pressing
spacebar) is not already set (i.e. if those coordinates are ( 0, 0 ) ).
You can set the relative origin while using the draw tool by pressing
spacebar. The relative origin is reset on exit of the tool.

Improved the selection heuristics to keep footprints in the
disambiguation menu when they contain pads with high pad-to-footprint
area ratio.
In other words: make it possible to select a footprint when
most of its area is taken by a pad. Previously pads were given the
priority, so it was very tricky to select the parent footprint.

To avoid situations when a large footprint covering most of the board
area (e.g. shield connector) is always selected, even when user clicks
in a seemingly empty spot, a simple filter has been added. In case
the footprint area covers more than 90% of the view area, the large
footprint is not selected. This way large footprints do not disturb
editing when the zoom is high enough.

Module placer did not mark the newly placed modules as selected,
but all edit functions (rotate/place/etc.) rely on getting a selected
item. When a rotation/flip command was issued, the newly placed module
was dropped and the one underneath the cursor has been rotated.
To fix this the newly placed modules are marked as selected.
It also simplifies the placer code a bit.

If the object changes between a TA_CONTEXT_MENU_UPDATE
event and a TA_CONTEXT_MENU_CHOICE event (usually as
a result of a cancel), the old code would leave the
last item hidden.

Opening Properties dialog normally does not ask the user to confirm the
action, even for locked items. The exception was a case when there was
nothing selected and Properties dialog was invoked via its hot key -
then SELECTION_TOOL::RequestSelection() tried to get the item under the
cursor, verifying the lock flag.

A change in commit 5731000135 caused kicad to stop allowing users
to move items like footprints, arcs and lines using anchors other
than the center point.
This was caused by the new code that stores reference points for
clipboard pasting, a call to updateModificationPoint() prevented
some old code paths from executing, which caused the selection to
snap into the cursor, always using the center anchor.
This fix moves the call within the if-cases that need it, and adds
a ClearReferencePoint call when the selection is "dropped" to allow
the user to grab the same selection again from a different anchor.

- renamed connectivity.[h|cpp] to connectivity_data [.h|.cpp] so that the file name matches the main class name.
- GetNetItems() now returns a vector instead of a list
SHAPE_POLY_SET: fix crash in VertexCount when it is a empty poly set, or when params are incorrect.
minor other fixes:
warning in degug mode in dialog_dxf_import_base.cpp
pcb_painter.cpp: remove a useless debug line.
- fixed netcode propagation bug
- factored out EDIT_TOOL::m_offset, now selection offset is stored in SELECTION class
- added VECTOR2I-based Move/Flip/Rotate methods in BOARD_ITEM
- added selection of reference point
- added snapping when pasting
- some minor code refactoring
- disabled pasting between footprint and pcb editors due to model incompatibility
-Can paste items from board to module-editor (only module parts)
-Can paste entire modules just as copy
-Can copy items inside module-editor
Known limitations:
-Will crash if trying to paste a module containing module_text inside
the module editor ( dont know why, problem existed before )
-If copying things with strange layer names, the layer names will be
changed.
Now the heirarchical sheet selection feature includes tracks that belong
to a net spanning multiple sheets, but only by doing a logical connection
from the pads of the modules. This is to be able to select connections
between components on the same sheet. For example if the sheet contains a
star power connection or something similar, then most of the sheet local
connections will now also be included.
- 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.

This patch does the following:
* extracts a method to determine the anchor point of the move
* improves the logic of the anchor point determination for selections of multiple objects which do not contain footprints
In the previous version the method did not work correctly
when an action was invoked from context menu. In such case,
the cursor position was obtained in the moment of selecting
the action, instead of using the right click location.
- ratsnest is updated now when undoing in legacy view
- select whole net regression
- local ratsnest in the GAL regression
- pick correct zone net for stitching vias
- mark nets as dirty on net propagation to force ratsnest update
Todo:
- cleanup board algorithm is still broken
This patch adds a radiobox to allow the user to select a reference point for
the move. The additional options are: User Origin (set with <space>),
Grid Origin and Sheet Origin (effectively making it an absolute coordinate).
A checkbox is added (where it makes sense) to allow overriding which point
within the component is put on top of the designated coordinate.

These were backwards since internal angles are CCW due to the inverted Y
axis.
The hotkeys have NOT changed. This means 'R' is now clockwise and
'Shift+R' is anti-clockwise. This is the same as EEschema, but not the
same as Legacy mode.
Removes the need of using the legacy code in polygon/PolyLine.{h,cpp},
refactoring all CPolyLine instances with SHAPE_POLY_SET instances.
The remaining legacy methods have been ported to SHAPE_POLY_SET;
mainly: Chamfer, Fillet, {,Un}Hatch.
The iteration over the polygon vertices have been simplified using the
family of ITERATOR classes.
The zone creation in DRAWING_TOOL was a complex event loop whici
simultaneously managed the event handling, construction of the preview
polygon and the creation and commiting of the zone, all in the same
scope. This has been broken into several pieces:
* POLYGON_ITEM preview item, used to preview the polygon in progress
* POLYGON_GEOM_MANAGER is a class that collects points from user input
and used them to describe a polygon's geometry, including calculation
of 45-degree constrained leader lines
* ZONE_CREATE_HELPER is a class which deals with creating zones based on
geometry from a geometry manager and parameters from the DRAWING_TOOL
* The (much simpler) event loop in DRAWING_TOOL drives the
POLYGON_GEOM_MANAGER. With a minor refactor, this loop can be reused
in future for other polygonal tools if wanted.
The polygon preview now has a translucent fill which makes it easier to
visualise the zone.
This also adds the Close Zone Outline and Delete Last Corner actions as
part of the new event loop.

This uses the two-point geometry manager to split the logic of the ruler
geometry and the preview item display. This allows the ruler to use that
manager's angle snap feature.
The motivation here is to concentrate display options in the GAL display
settings, ready for removal of legacy canvases. Instead of having the
property as a member of the DRAW_FRAME, with the GAL canvas retreiving
it from there, it is now in the GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS struct, and both GAL
and legacy get it from there.
The options for setting cursor shape are then moved out of the general
options dialog, and into the GAL display options widget, where they can
be used in all GAL-aware programs.
GAL cursor shape works on GAL, but not legacy, so the option is now
available on OSX (but only affects GAL, and is labelled as such).
This adds the microwave tools to GAL in Pcbnew as a new tool:
MICROWAVE_TOOL.
Some new preview items are introduced to support this:
* TWO_POINT_GEOM_MANAGER for managing construction of two-point
geometries, such as that used to construct the inductor.
* CENTRELINE_RECT_ITEM a preview item to draw ractangle with a given
aspect ratio along a line (specified using a TWO_POINT_GEOM_MANAGER)
PCB_TOOL gets a generic event loops which should be useful for more
than just microwave tools:
* doInteractiveItemPlacement() - handles event loops that wait for a
click, create an item on click and then allow moving it
around/flipping, etc.

This adds a richer overlay to the arc-by-three-points tool in Pcbnew,
including more guide-lines and a live display of radius and angle.
Also included is ability to go back to the previous step (if setting end
angle, you can go back to setting start point, etc) using Backspace, and
Ctrl snaps the start/end angles to 45 degree multiples.
This adds new classes
* MULTISTEP_GEOM_MANAGER: represents a generic "geometry manager" that
builds up some geometrical construction based on a sequence of points.
Used by:
* ARC_GEOM_MANAGER: handles the logical flow of constructing an
arc by centre-point, set radius, set angle. This moves the logic out
of the Pcbnew DRAWING_TOOL event loop in drawArc().
* ARC_ASSISTANT: graphical overlay to communicate current arc shape to
the user during the drawing process
This allows to measure between features on a PCB. It uses a preview
EDA_ITEM in common, but due to the use of the IDs, it's currently
Pcbnew/Modedit only.
This also adds several "utils" for graphical functons useful when
drawing preview items on GAL canvases.

This simplifies the (already simple) SELECTION_AREA class. It is also
moved into KIGFX::PREVIEW and put in the common library, where it can be
reused by other GAL-aware tools (not just in Pcbnew) in future.
- The tools can now specify if the items in the selection must be editable/
deletable. This is groundwork to be able to select/delete DRC markers, which can't
otherwise be edited.
- Fixed disappearing of selected objects
BOARD::GetBoundingBox() now directly calls BOARD::ComputeBoundingBox()
and there is a new method BOARD::GetBoardEdgesBoundingBox() used for
call sites that needed to use ComputeBoundingBox( true ) in the past.
This allows COMMON_TOOLS to implement ZoomFitScreen without knowledge
of the BOARD class.
