Phoenix doesn't have the same initialization as wxpython3 and so the
namespace doesn't get the wxApp() initialized to the existing instance.
In python, this is worked around by starting a new wxApp.
Unfortunately, this appears to overwrite the existing global instance
variable. The issue _appears_ to be in Phoenix but for now we work
around it by saving and resetting the instance pointer in the main app.
The downside is that Python likely won't be able to respond to events
from C++

When loading the load using the UI, netclasses and net info are
synchronized to the board object after parsing the file. This needs to
happen automatically when loading the board via the Python interface as
well.

The implementation relied on the fact that PyString_AsString is returning NULL
for invalid inputs (and causing an error condition), which is then fixed by the
call to FROM_UTF8. Now, we will simply return an empty string if Py_None is
returned by a python fuction, which resemebles the old behaviour of those methods
SEGZONE types were confusingly named PCB_ZONE_T. Zones in pcbnew are
now _only_ PCB_ZONE_AREA_T, so we name segzone types PCB_SEGZONE_T to be
clear.
This also removes processing of the SEGZONEs from connectivity
calculations.
For some obscure (for me) reason, the path separators in bundlepath are seen as escape seq, and the path can be incorrectly handled
(when \n or \r are found in this string).
it happens only for this path, not for other paths in LoadPlugins.
For bundlepath parameter, unix separator is now used.

pcbnew_action_plug tracks items that were modified within a plugin. In the case of
deletion, the old object is no longer valid. This commit turns off the call to delete
if a plugin is active.
Refresh is used in the python domain to refresh the display with the current
design. If something has changed, board connectivity likely needs rebuilding.
If using GAL canvas, update its display db.
Added new file connectivity.i to expose CONNECTIVITY_DATA to
python. enables access to d_pads from nets.
Added typemap to board_connected_item.i. since board_connected_item
doesn't use virtual inheritance, when returning a std::list of these
items, the typemap populates the return list with the child
types. This enables python scripts to use the full interface of those
classes (pad, track, zone)
Added typeinfo.i to enable passing a list of KICAD_T values to methods
GetNetItems. This list acts as a query filter. typeinfo.i is included
from pcbnew.i right after kicad.i (instead of in board.i like the
others) typeinfo.h is already being included kicad.i so to ensure the
typemap(s) are properly applied I put them next to each other.
The two new files (typeinfo.i and connectivity.i) were added to
pcbnew's CMakeLists.txt as dependencies.
- Also makes the project and file import functions filetype dependent.
- The change from IO_MGR::KICAD to IO_MGR::KICAD_SEXP removes a conflict from a compile definition for KICAD when compiling kicad/import_project.cpp
Add typedef for wxCoord to wx.i to enable usage of methods like
EDA_RECT.Inflate.
Added id.h to pcbnew.i to expose window toolbar identifier names.
Added Refresh() and WindowZoom() to pcbnew_scripting_helper.
eeschema now supports arbitrary colors for all object types, and
pcbnew does in GAL canvas. When switching from GAL to legacy canvas,
pcbnew will convert colors to the nearest legacy color.
This plugin mechanism is enabled only if option -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_ACTION_MENU=ON (it is off by default)
It imply -DKICAD_SCRIPTING=0N
This is currently for testing purposes only for developers, not yet for users.
Rename FPID to LIB_ID as is now used as a generic library identifier and
is no longer specific to footprints.
Remove all mention of footprint from the new LIB_ID doxygen comments and
code.
Rename files fpid.h and fpid.cpp to lib_id.h and lib_id.cpp.
Rename fp_lib_table.keywords file to lib_table.keywords and adjust CMake
build dependencies accordingly.
Update all source files effected by the code and file name changes.
Update .gitignore for file name changes.
*) Extend SWIG support deeper into the BOARD class.
*) Move swig *.i files into a directory identified for SWIG, in preparation
for a parallel universe involving Phoenix's SIP.
*) Move swig files which will be common to both eeschema and pcbnew into
common/swig.
*) Sketch out a "common" python module, and plan on dovetailing that into a
libkicad_shared.{dll,so}
*) Add common/swig/ki_exceptions.i and define a macro HANDLE_EXCEPTIONS()
which is to be applied to any function which needs C++ to python
exception translation.
*) Move the test for SWIG tool into top level CMakeLists.txt file for use
in all python modules beyond pcbnew, i.e. eeschema and common.
*) Add SWIG_MODULE_pcbnew_EXTRA_DEPS which generates a better Makefile, one
which rebuilds the swig generated *.cxx file when one of its dependencies
change.
*) Re-architect the board.i file so that it can be split into multiple *.i
files easily.
*) Make some KIWAY from python progress, in preparation for Modular KiCad
phase III.
