Improves rendering performance, esp. for large designs by:
- using a separate glDrawArrays calls() for large buffers of contiguous vertices (e.g. large zone fills)
- pooling smaller items into a small-sized index buffer held in system RAM (has to be DMAed to the GPU by the driver anyway)
CHANGED: Removed "ForcedCursorPosition()" and "IsCursorPositionForced()"
from view_controls.h. First, these functions are completely redundant
as they do the exact same thing but have different names. Second,
neither is called anywhere in the entire KiCad code base.
Adds "UpdatePreferences" action that is called when the preferences are
updated, allowing running tools to act on changes that may affect them

Processing a menu event for quitting results in the frame being
destroyed. This crashes the program when it tries to access the newly
freed frame to check for autosave data. We bind the closing flag into
the base program which will be the last item freed on exit to ensure we
can correctly check for data loss

The overload of wxFilePath::FindValidPath() broke the normal behavior
when the file searched for existed in the current working directory.
This was causing the initial library table file to be copied from the
current working directory instead of from the list of search paths.

`wxLaunchDefaultApplication()` fails on files with spaces on Unix
systems due to a programmer error. This is fixed in newer wxWidgets
versions, so let's backport it as a workaround.
The old algorithm treated the "Words" checkbox as meaning match the
entire text, not match words, which is unlikely to be what anyone is
expecting.
Also fixes replace to replace all instances in a single text item
rather than just the first.
Reported on the forum.
Text has a fairly big bounding box to account for descenders, overbars,
etc., but it makes it feel too sloppy for hittesting. This change
allows selection disambiguation to look at the actual strokes of the
text when deciding what's "closest".

ADDED: Option to assign unique reference designators to footprints
created with the array tool [pcbnew]
CHANGED: Array creator dialog no longer displays pad numbering properties
when in the board editor. [pcbnew]
