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.

Includes the addition of an onSetCursor() handler which must be called
from both the GAL canvas AND the GAL backend (at least on OSX) to prevent
cursor flickering between (for instance) pencil and arrow.
Also includes new architecture for point editors which allows them to
coordiate cursors with the editing tools (so we can switch to an arrow
when over a point).
We were running into various corner conditions where a tool's event
loop would exit while the tool was still active, or the tool would
get popped while we were still in the event loop. (A lot of these
had to do with the POINT_EDITOR's, but not all of them.)
The new architecture:
1) tools always do a Push()/Pop()
2) everyone is responsible for their own pops; no more stack-clearing
on a cancel
3) CancelInteractive events go to all tools to facilitate (2)
It's a bit of a hack because they're statically initialized and
so we can't make use of the _() macro. We do still want it in the
code, however, because the string harvesting is based off of it.

When dragging, you will seldom want to snap to the original item. This
commit prevents the "size of track" snap to the original item and
replaces it with an auxilary grid origin for the snap. This means
effectively that the snap will happen to grid for the original item
unless the cursor is closer to the original item line than it is to the
grid crossing.

The selection for interactive drag uses cursor position off grid to
choose the element for dragging. We pass the same value into the start
dragging routine to choose the correct end of the element.

When changing the track width, we need to allow that the track's route
will change based on DRC, so force a move without changing position.

After an action is completed that required the screen to pan when the
cursor reaches the edge of the screen, we should release the cursor to
allow the user to move their mouse without panning.

Track dragging forces the cursor position, which is still kept when PNS
router is launched again. It is avoided by resetting the force cursor
position option before running the event loop.
Launching right click context menu overrides the cursor position, so all
actions executed by the tools will be performed in the right click
position. It created an issue, as the overridden cursor settings were
saved into wrong context if there was another tool activated in the
meantime.
Current implementation saves cursor settings for all tools and restores
them once the right click context menu disappears.

Some actions, such as select trivial connection, don't need the
user to choose which trace at a corner to start from -- either
one will do. Same for moving a simple trace corner.
Likewise, Edit in Footprint Editor shouldn't ask if you mean the
footprint or the pad. Obviously it's the footprint.
This change adds a CLIENT_SELECTION_FILTER which allows clients
to do tool- or action-specific filtering of the selection before
the disambiguation menu is run.
It also removes some tool- and action-specific code which was
in the selection_tool and shouldn't have been.
