Threaded DRC access will write to this string, re-allocating the memory
without any synchronization between threads using the string. Comment
adding this listed performance as a reason for using shared strings.
Measured performance does not seem noticeably different in either case,
even with high-error count boards. If there is a case where the
performance is limiting, we can replace these wxStrings with
std::wstring and utilize fmt

The basic problem is that the DRC engine does length testing and skew
testing by collecting all the diff pair constituent parts and pairing them
itself. Since each part is collected on its own, we need to ignore the
'B' unit when evaluating any conditional expressions. However, doing this
in general means that when evaluating "OwnClearance()" we also ignore the
'B' unit and return the diff pair CLEARANCE_CONSTRAINT when we shouldn't.
This implements a more discerning test which know what the current requested
constraint is when evaluating expressions.

(cherry picked from commit f7cdc7af75)
The Mac double-quote bug is now fixed and strings inside expressions
are single quoted making single-quoting the entire expression pretty
hard to visually parse.
1) An earlier 6.0 fix to apply pad clearance overrides to NPTH pads
got broken, so this replaces it.
2) Allow min/max/opt to be set by different rules.
3) Fixes a bug where board minimum enforcement over a local override
didn't get the right message text.
6.0 will be in the field for a long time, and the better the debugging
tools we have available the less costly it will be to maintain.

One test has pads of a bunch of different shapes and provokes some
errors to make sure they're caught.
The others are all past issues with the zone filler to make sure we
don't suffer any regressions. (They should all just pass with no DRC
errors.)
They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
The main issue was a parameter mismatch which caused On^2 behaviour
for zone layers.
But there are several other performance optimizations here, along
with status bar updating for zones while running the dissallow test.

1) Don't report on tests not run.
2) Don't cancel subsequent tests because the current test didn't
have any constraints
3) Exit a little bit quicker when cancelled

Push DRC zone RTrees into BOARD so that they can also be used by
insideArea.
All these caches are a bit of an encapsulation leak, but they make a
significant impact on performance.
