Includes improvements to Update PCB from Schematic dialog and
corresponding changes to Symbol Properties, Sheet Properties and
Footprint Properties.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4012
When the solder mask min size is > 0, pads are no longer flashed or regions items.
Good Gerber files need pads flashed or regions items.
Non 0 solder mask min size is reserved to special cases (home made PCBs for instance)
When editing pcb items, the creation of a new net to connect existing
pads or traces can be a useful shortcut. This inserts the ability to
optionally create a new net from the Net Selector dropdown menu.
Replace SEVERITY_ERROR by RPT_SEVERITY_ERROR to avoid collision with a system definition.
Replace other SEVERITY_XXX by RPT_SEVERITY_XX for consistency.
Fix compil warnings and some other compil issues.
CHANGED: The reset buttons now set the X or Y offset to the current
offset from the reference position. Selecting individual pads as the reference item is now also possible.
Config values were not stored into the right variables.
Make also an option persistent during the session
in DIALOG_UPDATE_PCB and DIALOG_NETLIST
DIALOG_UPDATE_PCB and DIALOG_NETLIST match options: use same order in dialogs.
When drawing to a scaled DC, the window doesn't reflect the expected
size if scaled after. This causes elements drawn on the edge to reflect
back into the drawing area instead of being cut off.
We can simply scale our own values to avoid this issue.

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.
When adding a .pretty library, if the actual .pretty folder were
selected then no folder would be added to the list of libraries.
This led to an assert when normalizing paths, and the library
not being added.
ADDED: Back annotation algorithm,
eeschema back annotation dialog
CHANGED: added some minor helper methods to SCH_REFERENCE_LIST and SCH_REFERENCE,
split SCH_REFERENCE_LIST::CheckAnnotation on 2 parts to reuse code
