The use of printf, wxLogDebug, and std::err/std::out causes excessive
debugging output which makes finding specific debugging messages more
difficult than it needs to be.
There is still some debugging output in test code that really needs to
be moved into a unit test.
Add debugging output section to the coding policy regarding debugging
output.
Connectivity takes an absolute approach to whether elements are
connected. DRC will be adjusted to check to illegal necks that are less
than the board minimum width
Connecting zone-to-zone, we need to allow for the stroke-width in
old-style polygons.
Also, speed up the calculation by skipping zone points that do not fall
inside the matching BBox

We need to be careful in the connectivity system to always use
dyn_cast/dynamic_cast and check the return when dealing with board
items. Getting non-connected items will result in null nets when
propagated.

Intrusive lists made the connectivity search not thread-safe. Using
iterators for item deletion provides the same order performance while
keeping the container thread-localized
- CN_CONNECTIVITY_ALGO::ForEachItem
move implementation to header, so that a lambda can be inlined by the
compiler. improves iteration performance x2
- CN_ITEM::Net
move implementation to header, so that it can be inlined by the
compiler.
- CONNECTIVITY_DATA::GetNetItems
don't use std::set to filter out duplicates. use std::unique on sorted
vector. use a bitset to perform type check.
With pads, we should check available anchor points for each connection,
increasing probability of finding connection to match fill algorithm

Pads not on copper layers now do not have a netname, and are no longer taken in account in connectivity.
Especially it avoid creating useless rats-nests for these pads.
Give the user the option of cancelling a file open if there are
segment zones; otherwise they're converted to polygon fills.

It is possible for an async thread to simply be deferred if not
specifically set to async. In which case, until the return value is
requested, the loop may simply wait.
By decoupling from std::thread, we can avoid the wait/sleep cycle in
checking the std::atomic completion variable. The std::future variables
are immediately returning without the additional atomic check cycle.
This minimizes the thread usage, particularly during online actions such
as moving items and routing.
UpdateRatsnest: Minimized the number of atomics by utilizing future
promise. Avoided updating node-less nets. Node-less nets are common in
the dynamic ratsnest because the net vector is created from the board
nets by value but only populated with a subset. So the dynamic ratsnest
calculation always saw every net as dirty and spun up extra threads.
searchConnections: ParallelThreadCount is no longer lower bounded.
Small item counts are handled inline rather than with a separate thread.
Locks protect the std::set in each item. Devolving the mutex to the
CN_ITEM allows multiple threads to make simultaneous connections to
different items where they do not conflict.
The connectivity files were unwieldy. This separates them logically
into data, algo and items where the items classes are those that hold,
surprise, surprise, the items, lists and clusters.
