Under GTK3, the scrollbars fade in and out, causing a cascade of
re-paint events. These cause KiCad to be unresponsive while the repaint
events occur. By default this is 1s fade in 1s fade out but can be
configured by the user/wm.
Area mapping the repaint events to just scrollbar areas will be a good
solution but until/unless that happens the scrollbars in GTK3 are
problematic.
When the error switching to OpenGL is triggered by the requested switch,
we want to fallback to the cairo GAL renderer instead of the
GAL_TYPE_NONE, which defaults to legacy.

Display GALs had an incorrect world unit value set. Now the world unit
value says how many internal units are in an inch, in accord with the comments
in the GAL header. Bitmap drawing code relied on the information about DPI,
so scaling worked differently for display and print GALs.
Fixes a crash when typing fast in the place footprint filter box.
Also adds a bunch more checking to GAL locking, including making
sure the same person unlocks as locked, and preventing piece-meal
calls (the RAII objects must be used).
This prevents deadlocks when exceptions are thrown and the context
ends up not getting unlocked.
It also removes an earlier hack to try and minimize this which
didn't work anyway.
1) hide the status popup when the dialog is brought up
2) forward events from the popup to the canvas so hotkeys work
3) make sure diff pair radius is always 100%
4) fix greyed-out Miter style label
5) make L a hotkey so it works before you start dragging

- 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 puts the graphical/display options with the other similar options
in that dialog, rather than with the dimension options found in the Set
Grid dialog, which is in the Dimensions menu.
Also place the option itself in the GAL Display Options structure, so it
can be updated using the observer mechanism there.
The setter for the style in the GAL interface is removed, as the public
interface for setting this option is now to modify the
GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS structure and notify the GAL when done.
Some faults could result in a crash, as they were not properly
handled. Now the rendering loop is wrapped with try..catch block
which will revert to Cairo in case of an error and display an
error message.

Add a hack so that the pad properties base dialog constructor can pass in the dependency. Since the derived dialog's constructor takes the parent by this exact type, the static cast is safe.
