wxTextFile uses wxFile which uses write syscalls which means its unbuffered.
This makes file IO more expensive against network shares where it will flush far too aggressively.
wxTextFile is fine for reads however.
PROJECT objects will be deleted by SETTINGS_MANAGER::UnloadProject
so we need to make sure that this is called at an early enough point
in the closing process that anything needed by the PROJECT dtor
is still around.
Also fix an issue where the schematic worksheet was depending on
the project existing after the schematic had been reset.
ADDED new rectangle graphics tool for PCBNew and Footprint Editor.
Also adds rectangle tool to both Footprint Editor and PCBNew Place
menus.
The Aux Origin tool can come back once we have multi-select toobar
buttons.
Also collapses an unnecessary level out of the auxOrigin and gridOrigin
settings.

* Consolidate the measure tool into one tool (this gives cvpcb
unit changing and snapping capabilities in its measure tool)
* Transition cvpcb to use actions for the sketch modes
* Replumb how magnetic items settings are stored and used
Migrate COLOR_SETTINGS 0->1 to remove fpedit section
Migrate FOOTPRINT_EDITOR_SETTINGS 0->1 to use new theme if created
Remove COLOR_CONTEXT that is no longer needed
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.
* Make the grid display settings separate from the board object
* Ensure that the grid is initialized on creation in all the frames

On complex boards, the view holds a very large vector of all objects.
The dtor will remove each one, searching for the pointer before
removing. When removing all items, this process is not needed, so we
clear the view when exiting. This also prevents lock-up when closing
the full application as KiCad waits for the dtor to finish
(non-interactively). This will cause Windows to crash and Linux to
offer an option for terminating the non-responsive application.

Cache the footprint info on disk (in the project).
Move timestamp-generation (and checking) to the filesystem so the
above will be bullet-proof.
Rewrite some wxWidgets classes for performance (see common.h).
- 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.
