There has been a long standing (since the beginning of the project?)
issue with sharing schematics between projects. It has been somewhat
supported for complex hierarchies (a sheet shared multiple times in a
single design) but it has not been well supported for simple hierarchies
(the symbol references cannot be changed in the shared schematic). This
issue has been resolved by moving all of the symbol instance sheet paths
from the symbol definitions in the all of the project files and save all
symbol path instances in the root sheet. This ensures that orphaned
symbol instance paths do not accumulate in shared schematic files and
that designs that reuse schematic in simple hierarchies can how have
different references. It also allows the root schematic from one project
to be uses as a sub-sheet in another project.
When legacy schematics are loaded, all sheet and symbol UUIDs are
converted from time stamps to true UUIDs. This is done to ensure there
are no sheet path instance clashes between projects. That being said,
there are no checks for this. It is assumed that the probability of
UUID clashes is so low that it doesn't make sense to test for them.
SCH_SHEET objects can only have another SCH_SHEET object as a parent
or nullptr for the root sheet so overload EDA_ITEM::SetParent() to
prevent the parent from being set to another type of object and add
some checks to the root sheet code just in case someone gets clever
and attempts to bypass the overloaded SetParent() call.
Don't try to use complex algorithms taking into account default
margins, line-widths and pen-widths (especially when they differed
between label types). We now use the (user-controlled) text
offset ratio to determine the margins (from the center-point of
the attached line).
Please note that the symbol cache is not embedded in the schematic file
to allow for round robin testing with the existing file format. Once
the parser round robin testing is complete, the symbol cache will be
embedded in the schematic file.
Convert minimum sheet width and height definitions from mils to internal
units.
Add comment to sheet minimum width and height definitions to indicate
sizes are in mils.
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).
This moves EESchema DLIST structures to rtree. These changes are more
fundamental than the pcbnew changes from 9163ac543888c01d11d1877d7c1
and 961b22d60 as eeschema operations were more dependent on passing
drawing list references around with SCH_ITEM* objects.
1) When sheet pins are on 3 or more sides there's no point in switching
the orientation to vertical.
2) Careful that we don't cause the sheet to walk when rotating and the
sheet-name or file-name is longer than the side it's on.

The full filename comparison to detect the reuse of a file was broken on Windows
because it mixed a native filename notation (containing the drive id),
and a unix notation (no drive in filename, different separator).

No dangling symbol for text items with a NO-CONNECT.
DanglingStateChanged doesn't work with dangling flag aggregators
(which return true if any child is dangling).
Then again, we don't actually use any of the aggregators anyway
so I removed them.

... and GetMsgPanelInfo.
Step 4 in the g_UserUnit eradication effort.
Also removes a couple of conversion routines that were close
enough to extinction.
(cherry picked from commit c75da51)
This adjusts the selection addition criteria for
blocks to allow items such as labels to connect to
lines not at the endpoints. It also uses the same
logic to correctly gather bus-wire, bus-bus entries.

All of the schematic object load and save code is implemented in the
legacy schematic plugin so it is no longer required.
Remove unused file with old schematic file loader.
Doxygen comment cleaning.
Calculate the proper minimum height when resizing sheets to prevent resized
sheet height from always increasing.
Prevent the sheet pins from being drawn in the corners of the sheet when
updating the edge constraints on resize. This ensures that the sheet pin
is always drawn within the bounds of the sheet. Please note that this fix
may not be 100% accurate as is assumes the default grid size of 50 mils.
This may not be what the user expected but it guarantees that wires will
connect to the pin properly.

eeschema now supports arbitrary colors for all object types, and
pcbnew does in GAL canvas. When switching from GAL to legacy canvas,
pcbnew will convert colors to the nearest legacy color.
bitmaps.h was included in nearly every file in the project due to it
being included by base_struct.h
Only about 130 files actually use the XPM definitions defined there, and
many of those already included bitmaps.h themselves, or via
menu_helpers.h. However, touching bitmaps.h would result in over 400
rebuilt files for pcbnew alone.
This commit moves the bitmap-related types like BITMAT_DEF out to a new
header, which is still included by base_struct.h, which is less
avoidable for now, it's it's used in the interface.
The icon list is still in bitmaps.h. This has the side effect that's
it's now easier to automatically generate this file.
Many classes in pcbnew and eeschema needed some functions moved
to the implementaitons from the headers too.
Make all EDA_TEXT data private and rename accessors to avoid function
name collisions in derived classes.
Overload EDA_TEXT's SetTextAngle() and SetEffects() in TEXTE_PCB.
Add support for preserving Reference text position, size, orientation
during a netlist import into a BOARD, as well as the one off footprint
update dialog.
* Factor out PROPERTIES object from the PCB plugin code and move it into
common so it can be used by both the Pcbnew and Eeschema plugins.
* Add schematic I/O plugin manager for loading and saving schematic and
component library files.
* Add initial attempt at a parser for current schematic file format. This
parser will be infinitely more strict than the current parser which is very
forgiving in what it parses.
* Make minor changes to the base bitmap class to support the new parser.
* Add find root sheet support to sheet object to allow fetching the root
sheet from any sheet in the stack.
