Knockout text should only prevent filling directly around the text
itself, not the larger anti-text fill around it. This prevents minimum
width provisions from kicking in unneccesarily

(cherry picked from commit a12bc3a410)
The previous commit merged pads with copper areas. This was appealing
but broke when the pad and the area were meant to have different
size/shape technical layers. Small pads = Small paste. Instead, we do
not merge the pads but we assign them to have the appropriate nets in
KiCad, allowing the same effective result but keeping the technical
layers correct
(cherry picked from commit 51eb7aa5b5)
In Altium, copper polys will be connected automatically to their
associated pads. In KiCad, we need to do the equivalent when parsing,
which is to combine the joining copper into the underlying pad. We also
don't want to treat copper polys as proxy pads without the original
anymore.
(cherry picked from commit 7102d9f72a)
Also, corrects a minor issue with the text width calculation where
Altium calculates centerline to centerline but KiCad text heights are to
the edge of the stroke font. Need to still do better adjustments for
the various altium stroke fonts

Zoom-to-selection should only show the elements that we can see, so
avoiding hidden fields in footprints keeps the zoom window appropriately
sized

(cherry picked from commit 416033e8e5)
Showing the clearance area is not obvious as the clearance
extends from the pad on flashed copper layers and from the
hole on non-flashed copper layers. Because of this, we
choose to not display clearance lines at all on non-copper
active layers as it's not clear which we'd be displaying.
We follow the same rule for tracks for consistency (even
though they don't have the same issue).

When loading schematics/pcbs, notification of font replacements might be
warranted but in libraries, this warning is not helpful and intrusive
(cherry picked from commit 11c6164934)
The schematic net names are fully unique but if we have multiple pads
that are mapped to a NC pin, they need to have unique net names so that
they do not get connected to each other in the ratsnest. This breaks
the schematic parity check as we have modified the netname for some
pads. To work around this, we first maintain the zero-th net without
suffix and then add an additional check in DRC to ensure that we allow
unconnected nets as long as the share a common prefix with the schematic
netname.
(cherry picked from commit f61d400d88)
(Copper shapes, on the other hand, can. Since we use
GetItemDescription() to report DRC errors and the like,
it's better to have it report the net even when it's
<no net>.)

This removed the hatch fill import functionality,
and is no longer needed now that the root cause was found.
This reverts commit 616510aca2.
(cherry picked from commit 80b7f5fcbf)
- Filled zones using the hatch pattern cannot use the primitives from Altium.
the filled shapes must be rebuilt.
_ Filled zones using the hatch pattern with a very small gap are now converted
to a polygon pattern. Otherwise the calculation time can be very big.
From master branch.

If a non copper layers is added to a copper layer for plot with drill marks,
the drill mark was not visible (covered by shapes plotted from non copper layer).
Now copper layers are plotted after the non copper layers.
