When running headless, e.g. from Python script, the wxApp has not be
instantiated, so we cannot use wxConfig. In this case, we fall back to
the class defaults in ADVANCED_CONFIG()
Use the connecting straight tracks even if not exactly parallel - allow
an error margin configurable in ADVANCED_CFG (default 1 degree). Also
be less strict about end point matching and use the width of the track
as the criteria to determine suitability.
Finally, delete any short lengths of track at the end of the operation
and amend the arc end points to keep connectivity.

This is hidden behind an advanced configuration setting and is primarily
useful for developers trying to troubleshoot the netlist payload sent
from the board editor to the schematic editor.

By default KiCad will now print each polygon point on its own line.
This adds to the vertical distance for large polygons but makes revision
control much cleaner as single point addition to a polygon does not
propagate to a diff over the full polygon.
Users/developers who want to save the files using the 4-points per line
have the ADVANCED_CONFIG setting 'CompactSave' which will provide the
original save method
CHANGED: Settings are now stored in versioned sub-directories
ADDED: First-run dialog for migrating settings from a previous version
CHANGED: Settings are now stored as JSON files instead of wxConfig-style INI files
CHANGED: Color settings are now all stored in a separate settings file
CHANGED: The symbol editor and footprint editor now have their own settings files
CHANGED: Color settings are no longer exposed through BOARD object
CHANGED: Page layout editor now uses Eeschema's color scheme
Settings are now managed through a central SETTINGS_MANAGER held by PGM_BASE.
Existing settings will be migrated from the wxConfig format on first run of each application.
Per-application settings are now stored in one class for each application.
This also removes vector cover types which do nothing except obfuscate
the underlying implementation.
Mainly changes SCH_SHEET_PINS and CONFIG_PARAM_ARRAY (which will soon
be replaced by Jon's new stuff).
Mainly because it creates a new keyword a new keyword in *.kicad_pcb files,
and needs some tests, this is currently a advanced feature.
Enable it by adding "UsePinFunction=1" in "kicad_advanced" config file.
Note also "UsePinFunction=1" only enable saving this info in *.kicad_pcb
and kicad_mod files.
This allows rapid debugging of the coroutine memory issues. It moves
the default stack size to 256 * 4096 = 2^20, which will utilize full
pages on all architectures.
