In high-contrast mode, items that don't exist on the current layer are
not selectable, but this is problematic since there are library
components that only exist in the silkscreen layer (logos, etc).
By adding one of the silkscreen layers to the ViewGetLayers() output,
these components are now editable when viewing the silkscreen layer in
high-contrast mode. Silkscreens attached to footprints that have pads
or drawings on non-silkscreen layers are still not selectable.

Also, remove a wxPanel border as it makes device-independent sizing
nearly impossible. For some reason wxPanel::GetClientSize() is returning
garbage here and breaks centering text without fudge factors. I think it
still looks good without the border, maybe better.
- Add helper methods for DPI-independent sizes
- Make splitter sashes visible on macOS
- Remove SetSizeInChars() - wx has a built-in way that I missed
- DIALOG_CHOOSE_COMPONENT: DPI-indep splitter sizes
- DIALOG_RESCUE_EACH: DPI-indep default size and sensible HTML window
size
- COMPONENT_TREE: DPI-indep sizing
- DIALOG_FP_LIB_TABLE, DIALOG_SYMBOL_LIB_TABLE
Change term "Flip Horizontal" to "Mirror About Horizontal(X) Axis" in
the schematic editor symbol context menu to improve clarity.
Change term "Flip Vertical" to "Mirror About Vertical(Y) Axis" in the
schematic editor symbol context menu to improve clarity.
Change to the same mirror terminology in the block context menu.
Change "Exchange Footprint" to "Change Footprint" in the board footprint
context menu for improved clarity.

If the client tool indicates it isn't happy for us to continue
(because, for instance, the user has cancelled the Zone Properties
dialog), then make sure we don't capture the mouse.

The previous algorithm stopped whenever it entered a pad, which
sometimes leaves small track segments inside the pad. This one
keeps going as long as each segment gets us closer to the center
of the pad.

This patch adds functionality to the Pcbnew draw tool to show the dx and
dy of the current segment being drawn if the relative origin (pressing
spacebar) is not already set (i.e. if those coordinates are ( 0, 0 ) ).
You can set the relative origin while using the draw tool by pressing
spacebar. The relative origin is reset on exit of the tool.

Passing an empty path to the 3D model select dialog results in the file
select control displaying the root path which requires the user to drill
down to get to the 3D models. Use the KISYS3DMOD path as the default
and fall back to the project path as required for the initial file
select control path.
Clean up some coding policy violations.

Improve dialog layout and fix UI policy issues with all of the dialog
boxes in the Gerbview and Pcbnew code paths.
Updated the use of component to footprint where appropriate.
Replace all instances of "component" and "part" with "symbol" when
referring to schematic and library symbols.
Replace all instances of "component" with "footprint" when referring to
board and library footprints.
Minor dialog layout fixes to some of the dialogs impacted by the UI
string changes.
Refresh is used in the python domain to refresh the display with the current
design. If something has changed, board connectivity likely needs rebuilding.
If using GAL canvas, update its display db.
Improved the selection heuristics to keep footprints in the
disambiguation menu when they contain pads with high pad-to-footprint
area ratio.
In other words: make it possible to select a footprint when
most of its area is taken by a pad. Previously pads were given the
priority, so it was very tricky to select the parent footprint.

To avoid situations when a large footprint covering most of the board
area (e.g. shield connector) is always selected, even when user clicks
in a seemingly empty spot, a simple filter has been added. In case
the footprint area covers more than 90% of the view area, the large
footprint is not selected. This way large footprints do not disturb
editing when the zoom is high enough.
