wxWidgets offers two dialog types: wxFileDialog and wxDirDialog, one
to select files, the other to select directories, but neither of them
handles both. DIALOG_FILE_DIR_PICKER fills that gap.
When starting async processes, we need to have a way to stop the process
before releasing memory. Descoping FOOTPRINT_ASYNC_LOADER while the
threads were still running could cause crashes depending on the memory
structure. To avoid this we define clear procedures for exiting a
running async processes and call these when exiting.

It can be useful to have similar class messages grouped together so that
error messages in a larger report don't get lost among the
warning/info/action messages.
This patch allows sorting of messages for dialogs that benefit from
organization. Default behavior of reporter messages remains
unchanged by this patch.

Remove KICAD_PTEMPLATE environment variable as it's purpose was not
clear and was often poorly defined as the path to the KiCad installed
templates.
Add a new KICAD_TEMPLATE_DIR environment variable which clearly should
be the path of the KiCad installed templates. Make this environment
variable available in the user settings in case the default is wrong
which has been the case in some instances. Use the standard search
stack to set the default system template path which has a much greater
chance of being correct.
Add a new KICAD_USER_TEMPLATE_DIR environment variable which clearly
should be the path of the user defined templates. Users most likely
were not even aware of the old default user path unless they read the
fine manual.
Set template path search stack priority as follows:
* KICAD_USER_TEMPLATE_DIR
* KICAD_TEMPLATE_DIR
* Search stack template paths
Reverse template selection dialog and project path dialog for improved
user experience.

Unifies the different sections of hotkeys so that we are not storing two

Previous hotkey definitions are loaded at start if they exist but are

This reverts the hotkeys file format to a human readable and VCS
compatible listing by splitting individual hotkey assignments onto
separate lines instead of the single key. This unifies the hotkey format
between the application configuration and export Hotkey routines.
Both hotkey formats remain readable by the same routines.
The tools were being set as idle, whenever an event handler execution
finished (via TOOL_MANAGER::finishTool()). Such approach does not take
into account cases when a tool is active and receives an event causing
another event handler of the same tool to run. When this happend, the
tool has been incorrectly set as idle when the second handler finished
its execution.
In a particular case, invoking the router settings dialog caused the PNS
router to be incorrectly detected as inactive in
EDIT_TOOL::invokeInlineRouter(). Due to that, ROUTER_TOOL::CanInlineDrag()
requested a selection that required disambiguation menu for items
that were modified by the router, but not yet committed. After the drag
tool had finished, the disambiguation menu was eventually shown
with items existing only in the undo buffer. Removing such item lead to
track DLIST corruption, effectively erasing all tracks.

The opencascade patch intrusively checked against libraries but broke
some build scripts. This restores the default cmake OCE behavior that was
changed by 2bab30d9a and makes the OpenCascade search truly secondary.
Minor improvement in polygon calculation to use consecutive points
rather than casting to a full segment. Avoids division except when it
will not create a denormal.
Footprint filter provides two Regex filtering options. One for keywords
and one for footprint keywords. The footprint keywords (contained in
the symbol files) need explicit '*' at the beginning and end of the

implicitly matching any wildcard substring.

The only required scroll event handler is wxEVT_SCROLLWIN_THUMBTRACK,

The hotkey fix committed in 53b1ec81 broke non-us keyboards. Change the
hotkey help hotkey from '?' to Ctrl+F1 to prevent the hotkey list dialog
from being shown when placing a bus wire junction in Eeschema and when
changing the track posture in Pcbnew. This is still broken in the GAL
framework.
Symbol/footprint library and entry have the same set of forbidden
characters with a single exception, space character. To accommodate for
this difference, LIB_ID validation and fix methods have been extended to
specify the LIB_ID type that is checked (schematic/board).
LIB_ID::HasIllegalChars() and LIB_ID::FixIllegalChars() had two different
sets of characters treated as invalid in LIB_IDs. The set has been
factored out to another function to avoid duplication.
wxASSERT(), contrary to assert() does not terminate the program when
triggered. As assertions in ACTION_MANAGER are not critical and should be
treated as warnings - there is no need to close the program.
Also update the rest of the symbol-chooser usage to current

This is due to the fact the same ID was used for menuitems in menubar,

While we already cache the loaded footprint files, parsing said files
into the list is also time-intensive. Since the FOOTPRINT_LIST is
already hash-stamped against the current timestamps of the files that
make up the list, sharing a single copy of the list is quite
straight-forward.
Clearing bClError flag in NumericEvaluator::parseOk() made the
expression look valid, even if the flag has been set for a previous

For some DRC checks, the location of the marker is not the location
of the first item in the resulting DRC_ITEM, so centering the screen
on PointA of the DRC_ITEM can be confusing.
DIALOG_SHIM stores the dialog position, so every time it is shown, it is
displayed in the same location. This caused problems on multidisplay
setups, as dialogs could show up off the screen if the original display
has been detached in the meantime, effectively making them inaccesible
to the user.

Normal SetValue() call would temporarily change the displayed
value, but as soon as the text widget receives focus again, the original
expression (not evaluated) is restored.
To avoid this, the original expression is cleared in the associated

Since we are going to inspect every item for these calls, we don't
