Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to

Vertex memory allocation uses malloc and realloc without checking the
result. Throw exceptions that can be caught in the DoRepaint() method
in EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL when malloc and realloc return a null pointer.
Previous implementation uploaded only vertices with indices less
or equal to the number of stored vertices, which is invalid when
the container become fragmented.
