The config was saving a canvas type EDA_DRAW_FRAME member not always accurately initialized.
And the last canvas opened frame setup was saved, not necessary a frame having a canvas type that can be set by user.
This is a broken feature especially because the footprint viewer has a fixed canvas setting.
The standard DIM() macro was not typesafe as it happily deferred errors
to runtime that can be caught at compile time. Replacing it with a
generic C++11 constexpr allows for typecasting, comparison and compile
time error checking.
Currently, GAL is initialised to NONE (i.e. off). This causes
issues when Legacy canvas is broken (i.e. GTK3).
This changes the default to GAL Cairo, both in PCB_EDIT_FRAME
init, and in the config load.
Now, when the user starts with no config, they are prompted for
a choice: OpenGL or Cairo, and one of them will be set up, with
Cairo as fall back.
Users on platforms that still support legacy can go to it as normal
from the menu, but it will not be the default in any circumstance.

wxChoice centers the selection on GTK. So when switching from a
mid-list item to an item at the top, the list is always cut off for
choice lists located on the top toolbar. Using a combobox provides a
drop-down that allows easier access to all elements in the box.

Also updates the file menu IDs so that we can actually handle
more than 9 items in the file history.
Also adds configurable file history length to the other gerber
files (zip, drill and job).

Primary change is to replace most control/window borders with
AUI pane borders. We implement our own AUI border drawing
routine which avoids the ugly one-pixel white frames around
dark canvasses.
Also increases the signal-to-noise ratio of all the pane
creation code in the various frames.
This also fixes a bunch of bugs where an error during save would
still close the window (rather than cancelling the close action).

Previously, the dialog was created only once, with the current board setup and the current units selection.
Therefore, after changes in board or units, the dialog was really broken.
Now, the dialog is recreated when the plot command is run.
As of v5 footprint library reorganization (one repo per library concept
is replaced with a common repo for all libraries), the Footprint Library
Wizard may handle only the old libraries. It has been replaced with
a file browser to select only local files.

Freerouting-specialized menus are removed as FreeRouting is not
maintained or packaged for most OSes. Users can still import/export
SPECCTRA files in KiCad allowing them to interface with a custom
FreeRouting installation.
* Refresh the view only when changes are made in the caller frame.
* Allows recreate a new instances when try to open the 3D view from a frame taht is not the initial caller
* Remove duplicate code in kicad frames.
This partially reverts 36d36de and 3bac100, moving the legacy footprint
lock/unlock code from the autorouter (which remains disabled) to
pcb_edit_frame.
This had been removed along with autorouter but its functionality is
still desired. If/when the autorouter is resurrected, these IDs will
need to be deconflicted.

Some changes (enable/disable a layer) set the dirty bit even for empty boards.
So when closing pcbnew, the dialog asking for saving the board was shown, even when no board loaded.
Frame, dialog and config file couldn't agree on whether to use
internal units or not.
Frame now stores internal units, and they're now mapped on the
way in/out of the config file. Dialog was already assuming they
were stored in internal units (though they were previuosly not).

Also adds indicators in layers palette for feedback.
Also generates sized images for all indicators instead of using
scaled bitmaps (which didn't look great).
Also fixes a completely unrelated typo in a UI string.
Includes some dialog changes to go with the menu update.
Includes promoting the Pcbnew graphics mode back to main menu.
Includes renaming Graphics modes to Toolsets.
