- Footprints cannot be selected if they do not have items visible on the
screen
- Clicking on empty space in a footprint will select it if the space is
contained in the visible bounding box
- Clicking on a selected footprint a second time will deselect it
- Clicking on a footprint that has pads selected will still select the
footprint
This avoids having the full footprint bounding box considered when
selecting footprints (useful b/c footprint bbox is often much larger and
unexpected). Also allows non-standard footprints (e.g. silk or fab only
footprints) to be logically selected if the layers on which they have
elements are visible.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/15284
When working in high contrast mode, we want to be able to select a
footprint with only elements in, e.g. silk and fab layers.
The previous design for footprint IsOnLayer had one behavior of every
other element and a different behavior for footprints. This leads to
multiple bugs as new features use the overloaded IsOnLayer expecting it
to report if the element exists on a layer or not.
For footprints, we need a different routine to determine whether or not
to select the footprint when clicking on it. IsOnLayer will report if
the footprint has any elements on a specific layer but we don't want to
use the bbox for a hittest because large footprints with through hole
pads will exist on every layer and have an enormous bbox. Instead, we
filter footprints based on the hittest of each element. This behaves in
a more logical fashion, allowing you to select a footprint by clicking
on a visible element of that footprint.

We were calculating the same thing in three locations and we missed
adding the clearance from the footprints in, resulting in bad fills and
missed drc errors (see QA addition)
Also moves the settings from Board Setup to Preferences > PCB Editor.
Also collapses Track Drag Mode from radio buttons to a choice menu to
save space and allow it to be with the other editing action modes.
Bounding box computation uses a temporary footprint, but the clone
operation keeps the group information. We can't delete a footprint if it
has group information, so just delete the group information.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/14909
Its members can be on copper layers, but the group itself isn't on any
layer.
Also fixes a bug where we were trying to clone TRIANGULATED_POLYGON::TRI
shapes as indexable sub-shapes. (The TRI only has indexes into its
parent, so cloning it will only result in segfaults down the line.)
Also fixes a bug where we weren't including copper items inside groups
when checking footprint net ties.

1) Also reorders parameters to make sure the compiler helps out.
2) This also makes it harder to mess up the discrepency between
BOX2I/wxRECT/etc::Inflate() and SHAPE_POLY_SET::Inflate.
3) Also fixes a couple of bugs where the corner strategy was passed
in as a segCount.
4) Also fixes a couple of bugs where the error wasn't forced to the
outside to match the ERROR_LOCATION.
5) Also fixes a couple of bugs where the seg count was specified
without regard to an already passed-in max deviation
Don't open-code knockout text shape generation in several different
places.
Make sure triangulated knockout text gets clearance added when
specified.
Collapse duplicated footprint text item plot routine (they're no
longer any different from plotting pcb text items).
A sheetpath is required to correctly resolve text variables.
Depending on currentSheet is rife with bugs.
There are many places where we do *not* want to be prepending
field names to the field values, such as netlisting,
building PDF hypertext menus, etc.
Also, Find/Replace needs to work on unresolved text, as
that's what we're going to display (and if replace nuked
your variable references you wouldn't be happy).
The ViewBBox can include the largest document clearance so that pad
clearance lines get included. But the largest clearance can be, well,
large.

Net tie groups are currently separated by comma. But comma is also an
allowed, albeit rare character for pad names. To allow pad names with
commas in net tie groups, the group definition must be escaped with a
forward slash for commas (and forward slashes).
Pad 1,2
Pad 2,3
Net-tie group "1\,2,2\,3"

EDA_ITEMs are responsible for giving their parent a crack at it if
they failed to resolve it. This recurses all the way up to the schematic/
board, and then to the project.
Cross-reference handling is also move to the EDA_ITEMs. It must be done
before bubbling up so that we don't end up in loops. (The aDepth parameter
will break the loop, but without having done anything useful.)
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/13541
Also adds some debugging to try to catch dangling pointers.
Also adds a cache for group bounding boxes (which will be expensive
to calculate for large groups).

pad of a given number.
Also improves other DRC logic to tighten up the net-tie rules now that
we know which pads are allowed to short with which other pads.
Also removes the "Overlapping pads" DRC violation now that we know
whether or not overlapping pads in a net-tie footprint constitute a
short.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/12506
Each pad group is allowed to short nets with other pads in its group.
Legacy footprints with the "net tie" keyword hack will get a single
group auto-created with all the footprint's pads in it.
DRC and the router now allow a track to collide with copper graphic items
while entering a net-tie pad as long as the closest point in the collision
is within the pad.
DRC (and the footprint checker) now check for copper items in the
footprint shorting pads which are not in the same pad group.

1) Move a bunch of std::map's to std::unordered_map to get constant-time
look-ups
2) Lengthen progress-reporting intervals to spend more time doing work
and less time talking about it
3) Reverse order of SHAPE_LINE_CHAINs in thermal intersection checks to
make (much) better use of bbox caches
4) Don't re-generate bboxes we already have
5) Fix some autos that weren't by reference (and were therefore copying
large datasets)
6) Rename delta progressDelta so it's easier to search for in future
7) Get rid of a few more autos (because I don't like them)
8) Pass large items to lambdas by reference

When building the connectivity database, we should not be using the
connectivity to check for shapes.
To make this deterministic, we introduce two flags (ALWAYS_FLASH and
NEVER_FLASH) that are used with connectivity building to determine
whether a pad is flashed for connectivity or not. ZONE <-> PAD/VIA
connectivity will be checked with ALWAYS_FLASHED and all other
connectivity will be checked with NEVER_FLASHED if they are marked for
potential annular ring removal. If they are not marked for removal,
they will be checked ALWAYS_FLASHED.
