Since we are going to inspect every item for these calls, we don't
need to use the RTREE search, which is expensive with high item count.
This results in ~50% improvement in layer switching time in GerbView
when working with a set of large Gerber files.
If ',' is used as decimal separator by the current locale a '.' is also accepted.
Also add support for units "mi", "th" and "in" as described in the documentation of pcbnew.

Frame, dialog and config file couldn't agree on whether to use
internal units or not.
Frame now stores internal units, and they're now mapped on the
way in/out of the config file. Dialog was already assuming they
were stored in internal units (though they were previuosly not).

Keep any Eeschema color except background a fraction off of true white
to ensure that BW printing shows the lines as black. Only the
background is allowed to be white in an Eeschema printout.

Too many external applications fail to touch the parent directory.
Also removes FP_CACHE_ITEM lastMod times and dirty flags as we've
always loaded libraries atomically anyway.
Claws back some of the performance lost by being more efficient
with cache management for sequential calls to Enumerate and then
Load.

For some reason, when calling python and giving a full filename script, the last separator in the filename
must be '/', not '\'.
Otherwise the import command inside the script does not find files to import in the same folder as the script.
We cannot replace blindly '\' to '/' in command line because it does not work for file on a server (name starting by \\server_name\).
So the fix is just replacing one '\' in python script full filename.
This is not perfect, but at least it works for newly created plugin commands.
Add a library selector to the save dialog. Initialize it to the
footprint's library. This way a straigh-up save will do what's
expected.
However, the user can still select the active library (or any
other library) if they really did want to move the footprint.

Also adds indicators in layers palette for feedback.
Also generates sized images for all indicators instead of using
scaled bitmaps (which didn't look great).
Also fixes a completely unrelated typo in a UI string.
