* Switch to using org.kicad.kicad as the main app ID
* Move the appstream file to a metainfo file
* Rename all metadata files to use the reverse DNS scheme
* Add header matching to mime type files where possible
* Add a mime type for gerber job files
* Add a QA test that verifies all the linux metadata files and
run it in CI
* Update the visible names in the launcher entries to be more
consistent with the internal visible names
* Update various strings and items in the metainfo file so they
are more descriptive and easier to read
It appears as though there was an optimization to skip testing segments if
one of their endpoints (and only the A point) was inside. Unclear the reason
for this, but I'm going to assume that it was intended to optimize the case
where both points are inside (like the point case above it).
After commit 9535153f9e there were no more IDs inside the legacy ID
system. Therefore the entire system for dispatching and looking up
the legacy ideas and handling those events can now be removed and
the tool dispatcher simplified (it no longer needs to know about
the ACTIONS class).
This fix required sorting all of the LIB_PART draw items to ensure
accurate comparison between the symbols stored in the schematic and the
original library symbols. This has a noticeable impact on symbol library
load performance. It may also cause significant changes the next time
the library is saved due to changes in the draw item sorting. Hashing
may be a better solution here but this addressed the immediate problem.
A skeleton method SCH_SCREEN::SwapSymbolLinks() was added because there
is most likely an issue with orphaned symbols in the schematic library
symbol cache during undo/redo operations. More testing is required to
verify this.

Adds Tom's internal P&S debugging tool. This is a work in progress and the code is quite messy for the moment, but I can't keep it in private branches forever and waste time rebasing it.
Note: experimental and *very unclean* code. Use at your own risk.
Now that footprint properties inherit custom fields from schematic
they are very useful.
Setting custom properties from python will also be handy in plugins
that need to somehow mark their own objects.
The nettie hack is used in DRC but we also need to use it in zone filler
to allow zones to be used with netties. We limit this to the
appropriate nets in the nettie
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7351
This way the net names can be inspected in eeschema and cross-probing works.
Testcases updated for the name changes
CHANGED: all unconnected pins are now included in the netlist with no_connect_ prefixes
This behavior provided shorter net names, but was confusing if
the user gives an explicit strong driver in the subsheet but not
one in the parent sheet.
Testcases updated for net name changes; connectivity is the same
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/4201
Depending on what order the subgraphs are processed in, it's
possible to hit a case where the parent sheet renames a bus
member before the bus neighbor renaming logic runs. In this
case, we don't want to apply the bus neighbor logic as it will
break connectivity to the parent sheet if that bus was not
also renamed (for example, if the hier ports only make net
connections and not bus connections)
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/6887
In particular, there was a typo that kept library values from being
updated, and there was missing logic to fetch the various field names
from the library parts (and the change-to part).
Also implements some performance gains by desisting from copying
LIB_FIELDs around every time we want to look at them.

This unifies everything under a single architecture with a "don't
show again" dialog. Since everything now goes through the same
path it should be reasonably easy to make it do whatever we want
in the future.
Right now it presents 3 options: modify only unlocked items, override
locks and modify all items, or cancel command.
Also a rationalization of text polygon generators, with the "standard"
version inherited from BOARD_ITEM now giving the bounding box. This
requires callers who want the (much) more expensive stroke-based one
to call it explicitly (and brings PCB_TEXT in line with the was FP_TEXT
already was.

This fixes some DXFs imports where unforunately CAD tools like SolidWorks
randomly decide to mirror circle definitions across the "z" axis (resulting in x or y axis flips in 2d)
Most likely live projection from 3D to 2D drawings introduces this.
However this is DXF specification to describe it so obtusely with vectors for a 2d drawing.
1) Tests can't expect accuracies around 1 to work. PCBNew defaults
to 5000.
2) Tests shouldn't artifically expand tolerance just to match the
results.
3) Tests should guarantee that end point is on arc, not just close
to it.
4) Standard polygonization of a circle is inside so splitting the
error needs to increase radius, not decrease.
5) Special-case first and last points so that they're exact.
The groundwork has now been laid for per sheet instance data. Initially
this only supports sheet page numbers but could be expanded to include
other per sheet instance information.
ADDED: Support for user defined schematic page numbers.
Previously disambiguation was looking for exact matches,
but vector buses are permitted to have different ranges and
still participate in merging, so they need to be disambiguated.

Note, the original markdown spec specifies using 4 spaces to indent a
code block (https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax)
Wrapping with three backticks doesn't work with this lib. Wrapping
with a single backtick for span elements works ok.
in most of files, including wx.h is not necessary, when only 2 or 3 wx files must be included.
Moreover, on windows, including wx.h sometimes create compil warnings about
shadowed vars defined in some specific windows headers.
Also simplifies groups so that other areas of code that have to know
about them at least don't have to know as much. One of the simplifications
is to not worry so much about empty groups until save time; others are in
the access logic to parent groups.
Also simplifies user model slightly by removing Merge and Flatten
(which are just ungroup/group and ungroup/ungroup/.../group).
Also allows multiple groups to have the same name. This is useful when
using groups for a classification system.

This changes the file format. All previous copper layers that had a user
defined name are forced back to the canonical name and the user defined
name is stored as an optional quoted string in the layer definition and
only used for UI and plotting purposes. All copper object layer names
are now the canonical name for internal file use.
ADDED: Nine new user definable non-copper layers that can be optionally
added to the board layer stack.
CHANGED: All board layers can now be renamed by the user.
CHANGED: User defined layer names can now contain space characters.

Improves implicit rule reporting.
Makes some internal names more consistent.
Moves DRC_REPORT to the test framework.
Removes priority (which isn't supported in the grammar)
