Bitmaps are now identified by an enum class instead of by pointers.
Bitmap loading and caching is now handled by a class in common, and
we no longer compile most bitmaps into the binary, so there is no
longer a bitmaps static library.
Instead, bitmaps are archived to a .tar.gz file which is installed
in ${KICAD_DATA}/resources/images.tar.gz
The source PNGs are checked in to Git as the original CPP files were,
so that people can build without the required dependencies to convert
SVGs to PNGs.
Initial support is also added for dark theme icons, although this
is not yet exposed in the GUI.
Stubs are present for multi-resolution image resources, but this is
not fully-baked yet and could use some refinement.
The reality is the DXF file can still override the selected unit option which is totally fine.
In fact, per specification, there is a way to change units mid-file with block records :/
There is no guarantee DXF contains $INSUNIT to specify the units of the file as its optional.
This allows the user to specify the expected units via dropdown.
SolidWorks can definitely generate such unit lacking files as an example
ADDED: Allow DXF/SVG graphics to be imported as a group
Also, cleanup the placement routine to allow the edit tool's flip
and rotate routines to be used when placing the items.
CHANGED: Settings are now stored in versioned sub-directories
ADDED: First-run dialog for migrating settings from a previous version
CHANGED: Settings are now stored as JSON files instead of wxConfig-style INI files
CHANGED: Color settings are now all stored in a separate settings file
CHANGED: The symbol editor and footprint editor now have their own settings files
CHANGED: Color settings are no longer exposed through BOARD object
CHANGED: Page layout editor now uses Eeschema's color scheme
Settings are now managed through a central SETTINGS_MANAGER held by PGM_BASE.
Existing settings will be migrated from the wxConfig format on first run of each application.
Per-application settings are now stored in one class for each application.
This update replaces the existing uses of unique pointer creation with
the C++14 std::make_unique call that provides proper memory release in
event of an exception.
* Fix wildcard display in the file selector dialog (on GTK
it would show the regex to the user)
* Move the file extension comparison into a common function
Use the HTML_MESSAGE_BOX window to present the warning messages rather
than wxMessageBox which would overflow the display when there were a lot
of graphic items that could not be parsed.

Improve padding, spacing and alignment of dialog layout.
Fix title capitalization.
Make file dialog wildcard string translatable.
Remove fixed initial dialog size to allow sizers to work their magic.
Replace OK button event handler with TransferDataFromWindow.
Remember last line width units between dialog instances and sessions.
Save configuration file settings in a separate group and remove GfxImport
prefix from the entry names.
Add fencing to dialog header file to prevent nested includes.

When adding an element to a module, we don't need to update the relative
coordinates. Doing so can cause changes when writing to file depending
on rotation and position.
Fixes: lp:1810870

This allows too turn it on for work without an additional patch.
Also fix a bug in the disable code - when the SVG is enabled,
allow to select SVG files.
SVG import need some refinements to be efficient, so it is disable for v 5.x.
Will be re-enabled later.
Enabling SVG import is *only* for developers, not for users.
* Do not compile dxf old files.
* import gfx, gal mode: make absolute placement working.
* Import gfx in legacy canvas: use it and make interactive placement working
* Take imported line width in account. Ensure DXF line thickness is OK.
* handling empty files in legacy mode.
