IPC2581 is a modern production file exchange system. It provides
single-file data output for an entire board including BOM and netlist
information.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/1954
- move place dimensions to a sub menu (they are not frequently used, and it
reduce the size of the place menu
- add reset drill origin, similar to reset grid origin.
This allows common operations like merging a pin courtyard
into the body courtyard in the fooprint editor, taking a
"bite" out of a polygon and so on,
For now, this only supports polygons made of straight lines.
There are some wierd cases when the operations result in nothing
(e.g. wen a big polygon is substracted from a smaller one that
it contains entirely). I have tried to do something senisble in
these cases, but there may be more optimal ways to handle it.

The draft fill and single zone unfill would only work if something was
selected first, this allows them to call the selection operation to
request what is under the cursor. Also properly gate the operation to
not cause crashes/issues when the selection contains non-zone items.
Using the new ITEM_MODIFICATION_ROUTINE system, drop in two new
tools: chamfer and line extend. These are two geometric operations
that are relatively common when editing footprints in particular.
Chamfer delegates the geometric calculations to a dedicated unit
in kimath/geometry.
Using std::any from C++17 allows for proper type handling in the
parameter field, removing the need for casting to void* and then casting
the void* to the desired type.
Change teardrop generation to rely more heavily on BOARD_CONNECTIVITY
for improved performance.
Add updating of teardrops on BOARD_COMMIT::Push().
Also converts m_CopperItemRTreeCache to std::shared_ptr.
We don't copy it around anyway, and having to create a new set
of std::unique_ptr's for each operation is likely to be more
expensive than std::shared_ptr's overhead.
Previously, it was not always the edited footprint, but a footprint
selected from the library tree.
It was especially annoying when the footprint was loaded from the board editor:
The footprint was not the loaded footprint, but its copy from library.
(They should only be used when we collect more info before performing
the command. If the command is something like showing the simulator,
then there should be no elipsis as we don't collect more info before
showing the window.)
Also improves a few of the menu tooltips.
