- ensure the 'chamfer' radius and clearance is rounded before computing the actual hull vertices
- for small, non-45 degree line segments (present in many boards), generate a slightly larger but still axis-aligned 45 degree hull instead of following exactly the segment direction
The original decision to escape the legacy symbol library names results
in them being escaped every time they are opened which cause the curly
braces '}' from the original escaping to be escaped on subsequent
openings. This resulted in the symbol library names in the rescue
library not matching the library ID in the schematic.
This fix is likely to have other corner case bugs given the potential
for escaped characters in legacy symbol libraries. Given that we now
have escaped rescue libraries in play, removing the escaping will only
result in more issues so we will have to fix the corner cases as we go.

physical layer names are not translated in files, but they were translated
in UI. Using these translated names can create issues and misunderstanding for users.
Now physical layer names are seen as proper nouns and are never translated.

This is likely an old workaround to numerical precision issues
in the DRC system that no longer exist. Removing this is necessary
for "exact" hull generation to produce walkaround results that
look nice (paths falling exactly on the grid lines)

(cherry picked from commit 5d4e2aa595)
When we generate hulls, by default we subtract the clearance epsilon
to prevent false collisions in the router that wouldn't be flagged
by DRC. However, we need to use the actual hull with no epsilon
when generating hulls for pathfinding in the walkaround system.
Without this change, it is possible for the walkaround to generate
a valid-seeming path that results in a DRC violation, for example
when dragging a drag against a board edge.

L-clicks during routing operation while the mouse is moving (even slightly) were ignored, which was annoying to some users (myself included). Now the router
always fixes the track upon mouse click.
We now test the midpoint (B) of the 3 consecutive polyline points (A, B, C), since (assuming the angle between AB and BC is > 90 degrees) AC is always longer than
AB or BC. This minimizes the distance computation rounding error (in the previous algorithm, taking the point C for colineraity test) if AB is short and BC is very long, the test would
often fail due to rouding error in projection/line distance computation
The shove algorithm can't move the loose track ends. It always needs a via. In case of wide segments stitched with
a small via, the collision search finds only colliding segments and does not consider the via. This leads to frequent shove falilures
or 'choppy' behaviour when the head line only slightly overlaps with an end of a thick trace. This patch attempts at improving this behaviour
by considering the 'tiny via in wide segment' case explicitly.
