-Can paste items from board to module-editor (only module parts)
-Can paste entire modules just as copy
-Can copy items inside module-editor
Known limitations:
-Will crash if trying to paste a module containing module_text inside
the module editor ( dont know why, problem existed before )
-If copying things with strange layer names, the layer names will be
changed.
Now the heirarchical sheet selection feature includes tracks that belong
to a net spanning multiple sheets, but only by doing a logical connection
from the pads of the modules. This is to be able to select connections
between components on the same sheet. For example if the sheet contains a
star power connection or something similar, then most of the sheet local
connections will now also be included.
- 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.

This patch does the following:
* extracts a method to determine the anchor point of the move
* improves the logic of the anchor point determination for selections of multiple objects which do not contain footprints
In the previous version the method did not work correctly
when an action was invoked from context menu. In such case,
the cursor position was obtained in the moment of selecting
the action, instead of using the right click location.
- ratsnest is updated now when undoing in legacy view
- select whole net regression
- local ratsnest in the GAL regression
- pick correct zone net for stitching vias
- mark nets as dirty on net propagation to force ratsnest update
Todo:
- cleanup board algorithm is still broken
This patch adds a radiobox to allow the user to select a reference point for
the move. The additional options are: User Origin (set with <space>),
Grid Origin and Sheet Origin (effectively making it an absolute coordinate).
A checkbox is added (where it makes sense) to allow overriding which point
within the component is put on top of the designated coordinate.

These were backwards since internal angles are CCW due to the inverted Y
axis.
The hotkeys have NOT changed. This means 'R' is now clockwise and
'Shift+R' is anti-clockwise. This is the same as EEschema, but not the
same as Legacy mode.
Removes the need of using the legacy code in polygon/PolyLine.{h,cpp},
refactoring all CPolyLine instances with SHAPE_POLY_SET instances.
The remaining legacy methods have been ported to SHAPE_POLY_SET;
mainly: Chamfer, Fillet, {,Un}Hatch.
The iteration over the polygon vertices have been simplified using the
family of ITERATOR classes.
The zone creation in DRAWING_TOOL was a complex event loop whici
simultaneously managed the event handling, construction of the preview
polygon and the creation and commiting of the zone, all in the same
scope. This has been broken into several pieces:
* POLYGON_ITEM preview item, used to preview the polygon in progress
* POLYGON_GEOM_MANAGER is a class that collects points from user input
and used them to describe a polygon's geometry, including calculation
of 45-degree constrained leader lines
* ZONE_CREATE_HELPER is a class which deals with creating zones based on
geometry from a geometry manager and parameters from the DRAWING_TOOL
* The (much simpler) event loop in DRAWING_TOOL drives the
POLYGON_GEOM_MANAGER. With a minor refactor, this loop can be reused
in future for other polygonal tools if wanted.
The polygon preview now has a translucent fill which makes it easier to
visualise the zone.
This also adds the Close Zone Outline and Delete Last Corner actions as
part of the new event loop.

This uses the two-point geometry manager to split the logic of the ruler
geometry and the preview item display. This allows the ruler to use that
manager's angle snap feature.
The motivation here is to concentrate display options in the GAL display
settings, ready for removal of legacy canvases. Instead of having the
property as a member of the DRAW_FRAME, with the GAL canvas retreiving
it from there, it is now in the GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS struct, and both GAL
and legacy get it from there.
The options for setting cursor shape are then moved out of the general
options dialog, and into the GAL display options widget, where they can
be used in all GAL-aware programs.
GAL cursor shape works on GAL, but not legacy, so the option is now
available on OSX (but only affects GAL, and is labelled as such).
This adds the microwave tools to GAL in Pcbnew as a new tool:
MICROWAVE_TOOL.
Some new preview items are introduced to support this:
* TWO_POINT_GEOM_MANAGER for managing construction of two-point
geometries, such as that used to construct the inductor.
* CENTRELINE_RECT_ITEM a preview item to draw ractangle with a given
aspect ratio along a line (specified using a TWO_POINT_GEOM_MANAGER)
PCB_TOOL gets a generic event loops which should be useful for more
than just microwave tools:
* doInteractiveItemPlacement() - handles event loops that wait for a
click, create an item on click and then allow moving it
around/flipping, etc.

This adds a richer overlay to the arc-by-three-points tool in Pcbnew,
including more guide-lines and a live display of radius and angle.
Also included is ability to go back to the previous step (if setting end
angle, you can go back to setting start point, etc) using Backspace, and
Ctrl snaps the start/end angles to 45 degree multiples.
This adds new classes
* MULTISTEP_GEOM_MANAGER: represents a generic "geometry manager" that
builds up some geometrical construction based on a sequence of points.
Used by:
* ARC_GEOM_MANAGER: handles the logical flow of constructing an
arc by centre-point, set radius, set angle. This moves the logic out
of the Pcbnew DRAWING_TOOL event loop in drawArc().
* ARC_ASSISTANT: graphical overlay to communicate current arc shape to
the user during the drawing process
This allows to measure between features on a PCB. It uses a preview
EDA_ITEM in common, but due to the use of the IDs, it's currently
Pcbnew/Modedit only.
This also adds several "utils" for graphical functons useful when
drawing preview items on GAL canvases.

This simplifies the (already simple) SELECTION_AREA class. It is also
moved into KIGFX::PREVIEW and put in the common library, where it can be
reused by other GAL-aware tools (not just in Pcbnew) in future.
- The tools can now specify if the items in the selection must be editable/
deletable. This is groundwork to be able to select/delete DRC markers, which can't
otherwise be edited.
- Fixed disappearing of selected objects
BOARD::GetBoundingBox() now directly calls BOARD::ComputeBoundingBox()
and there is a new method BOARD::GetBoardEdgesBoundingBox() used for
call sites that needed to use ComputeBoundingBox( true ) in the past.
This allows COMMON_TOOLS to implement ZoomFitScreen without knowledge
of the BOARD class.
Adds a similar crossprobe as modules has in pcbnew. When clicking a
sheet in eeschema, the items that are exclusive in that scheet will be
selected in pcbnew if using the GAL canvas.
SELECTION now holds EDA_ITEMs not BOARD_ITEMs so various places had to
change to casting the selected items to BOARD_ITEMs.
Fixed compilation warnings on clang (Tom)
This just uses the same hatch lines that are built into the zone as
legacy.
They are always drawn, even when there is a fill, as if the fill
doesn't reach the corners, the hatches can be seen.

This is used to provide menu entries that allows cancellation of
interactive drawing and routing tools without needing the keyboard.
It is provided in the drawing tools and the router tool.
The cancel event doesn't have any new functionality (e.g. track rip-up
for the PNS router - lp:1448460), this just adds it to the menu, where
it behaves the same as an Escape keypress.
Some grid/zoom tools are left in PCBNEW_CONTROL because they currently
depend on Pcbnew-specific class members. Once refactoring is done to
make it possible to use all zoom and grid controls outside of pcbnew,
these last tools can be moved to common to match their ACTIONs.
New virtual class ACTIONS is added as a member to EDA_DRAW_FRAME so
that the TOOL_DISPATCHER can have access to the appropriate derived
version of TranslateLegacyId()
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.
The apply settings and push settings options now take account of the
validity of the global pad settings when deciding whether to show or
not.
Global pad push now requires a source pad and doesn't push from the
global pad setting when there is no selection.
The whole submenu is hidden when there are no enabled items.

This patch fixes a problem with GAL where zones are ignored in ratsnest
calculation.
The problem is that calling RN_DATA::Update on a zone with no polygons
(an unfilled zone) will remove the zone successfully, but then
RN_DATA::Add is a no-op.
From this point on, because ::Update refuses to work on items that have
not been ::Add'ed, the zone is removed entirely from ratsnest
calculation and will only be reconsidered once it is explicitly ::Add'ed
again.
The fix is to explicitly create an empty RN_ZONE_DATA object for every
zone that is ::Add'ed.
A second problem is that the point editor forgot to call
RN_DATA::Recalculate after calling Fill_Zone.

Modifies the selection menu to be adaptive and disable selection options
that are not possible.
Adds a new selection option that is only available when selecting
modules, this tool will select all footprints on the same sheet level or
belonging to subsheets. It will also search for nets that are only
connecting between modules on the same sheet or lower and select every
segment and via belonging to it.
This action launches the normal interactive zone tool, but re-uses the
settings from an existing zone, based on a flag passed to the main zone
function.
Break a chunk of the new zone tool out into a separate function to keep
the code clear. When zone cutouts and similar zone tools are added,
they'll get the settings from existing zones.
This commit now used std::unique_ptr for the temporary zone item, which
simplifies handling of the ownership of that item.
This commit wires up the as-yet-unused "remove alternate" tool action
and uses it to select copper connections (normally 'U') before deleting
segments.
THis also reverses the sense of Delete and Backspace (Delete used to be
'remove' and Backpace was 'remove alt', now it is reversed). This means
that backspace is the key that removes a segment and Delete removes the
track. This is the same as legacy behaviour. Other delete actions are,
for now, the same between Delete and Backspace.

Replaced setting updatePreview with direct calls to VIEW::update
Line width is kept in m_lineWidth for all shapes.
Import becomes apply and export becomes copy.
The term "push" to apply settings globally has not been renamed.
Swap the order of the copy and apply in the context menu.
Perviously, the generic snapping code would choose the nearest of the
module origin and origin of each module pad when selecting a module
using the "Find module" tool (T hotkey).
This is unlikely to be expected unless the cursor is already near the
correct pad or the module centre.
New behaviour is to pick up by module origin first, then
select the module. This means that the cursor is already nearest the
main module origin anchor, so that is what will be used.

When creating a copy of CONTEXT_MENU, always a CONTEXT_MENU instance was

CONTEXT_MENU::create() that has to be overridden in inheriting classes.
Event & update handlers are now virtual functions, instead of setting
the handlers with Set{Event,Update}Handler().
Since you have to explicitly enter the module editor with the menu or

There used to be a number of TOOL_ACTIONs that had entries both in
SetTransitions() and the event loop, which seemed redundant and
troublesome.
Now it is not necessary anymore, transitions setup is enough to execute
associated actions.
The problem with simple deleting VIEW_ITEM_DATA upon VIEW_ITEM removal was
caused by the default copy constructors that copied pointers.
Once a copy of an item was destroyed, the VIEW_ITEM_DATA has been
destroyed, effectively invalidating m_viewPrivData for the other item.
This means that non-top-level tools, for example EDIT_TOOL and
PCB_EDITOR_CONTROL can submit their own menus to the top-level tool's
TOOL_MENU, which will then retain a reference to it and make it
available for the CONTEXT_MENU that is shown.
Add a class TOOL_MENU, which provides a management class for a
CONDITIONAL_MENU and a set of CONTEXT_MENUs. The aim of this is to
provide a central place where all TOOL_INTERACTIVEs can get a "basic"
context menu that either they or other tools can register new items and
sub-menus against.
This means that "top-level" tools no longer need to manage the lifetimes
of any CONTEXT_MENUs that they add, and can also delegate simple menu
display functions.
If the SELECTION_TOOL's Select... menu is not shown, the separator under
it should also not be shown, so use the same SELECTION_CONDITIONS to
enforce this.
The GAL line segment tool now listens to the global line segment 45
degree locking preference, with Ctrl used to invert the behaviour. The
behaviour therefore follows the setting normally, and the user can
override when needed with Ctrl.
