In commit 7cb754dd a call to wxMilliSleep(50) was removed (because it created
lag in editing) but this removal created a 100% CPU core usage.
Using a much small sleep time (1ms) fixes these issues.

The diff mode (option in left toolbar) was never a differential display mode.
It is actually an option to force the alpha channel (opacity) of layer colors
to a given value.
So change the name and tool tips to force opacity mode, and make the opacity
parameter adjustable in preferences.
Gerbview: cleanup: remove a old and dead code.
Library watches only need a single directory or immediate children. The
project watcher should have a sensible limit to the total number of
files it tries to track.

Under certain circumstances, the library symbol links were missing
the library nickname causing the schematic symbols to appear as if
the library symbol was missing.
Added a helper function to create the symbol library name to avoid
code duplication.

The DRC annular ring width test failed to take into account that a pad
could be contained inside another pad having the same number (thermal
vias for example) which changes the effective annular width of the pad
contained within another pad. A test was added to calculate the effective
annular ring width in this case.
Added some PNS log viewer helper and test code to the PNS playground QA
utility for testing the effective pad annular width code.

Defer telling the statement about the connection until the
try block, because otherwise it can connect immediately and
potentially throw an exception if the connection fails.

Fixed point output can create arbitrarily long string representations of
floating points. When this happens, we would like to just represent the
scientific notation to a limited precision
