This ensures that when starting to draw a zone or graphic element, the
preview is drawn in the same color/on the same layer as the element that
will be created. Previously, beginning a graphic polygon while a copper
layer was active would result in the preview being drawn in the color of
the active copper layer.
Adds Cut/Copy/Paste and Revert for footprints; introduces a new
shared Revert Changes? dialog; hooks up Add Library for footprints,
standardizes the Save As terminology.
Polygon corners were enabled in the footprint editor but the logic
didn't extend to the board editor. This revises the logic to look for
DRAWSEGMENTs and only reference the PCB_MODULE_EDGE_T where needed to
create a new segment in the footprint.

Allows selection of polygons and zones by their visible area. Will only
select polygons/filled areas when they are unobstructed by other
elements in the footprint/pcb. Also adds a "skip heuristics" modifier
key for clicking (ALT) that allows the full disambiguation list to be
displayed without removing less-likely elements. This dovetails the
zone/polygon selection as it allows selecting even when areas a fully
overlapped.

This fixes the CmpNoCase() == 0 bug on one side, and the
footprint == null bug on the other side; both of which were
previously fixed on only one side.

We want to keep at most 1 thread per 2 connectivity updates but we need
to force that floor to be at least 1 for when there is only 1
connectivity update.

SEGZONEs are no longer created by pcbnew but may exist in older boards.
This allows deleting the old fills in a manner similar to the deletion
in Legacy canvas.

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.
m_dragstatus is set to true when a valid route is created given the
user's constraints. We need to check this before committing the route
to the board.

Unselecting performs two functions: unselecting and unhighlighting.
Some items may be deselected but still live in the temporary highlighted
layer (e.g. selecting a footprint and exchanging it). Since there is no
harm in unselecting an unselected item, we can allow it to proceed
without the check.
Deselecting each individually had the side-effect of possibly re-drawing
the view in between actions, leading to visible artifacts in the router
(where invisible items are set visible before committing a change)
Nets dialog (Inspect->List Nets) contains list control
that has very small width for first and last columns.
Changed algorithm for calculating optimal values for
column width.
We only need to test zone connections once, so we skip the double-check
from the nested loop unless we are only checking a single zone. Then
the second loop needs to iterate over the full list of zones.
Commit efdbc91e42 broken the primary
alignment mechanism for maintaining the current point as an auxilliary
grid reference. This reverts that commit and fixes both the initial
issue and the associated bug by applying the primary constraint after
the secondary. In this way, we consider the secondary constraint as an
additive rather than alternative constraint.

Change "OK" to "Export" so user is not surprised by the fact that the

It can be used instead of the slot (G85) command to create oval holes.
Do not yet activate it.
Oval holes frequently create issues with board houses.
Using a more usual routing (G01) command could solve some issues.
When editing the pcb, Ctrl-Click will highlight a net. This allows
de-highlight with the ESC/cancel action from the selection tool. Inside
the highlight tool, ESC reverts to the selection tool while keeping the
net highlighted.

Clang++ seems to be in left-field here as it processes a stringstream
1.0X1.0 >> double as a hexadecimal floating point ('X' character) and
throws an error rather than converting 1.0 and stopping when it reaches
a non-numeric character. This causes errors when exporting step on Mac,
which uses clang++ by default.
Adding spaces to the string is more explicit and doesn't break gcc. It
will be sufficient until we get rid of kicad2step as an external
utility.
