How you ask? Plot first -> then read the PDF and print directly to the
platform-specific printers. Roundabout? Yes. Better than wx printing?
Darnbetcha.
Also allows multi-size page printing and proper margins and print
preview

Makes all canvases obey the same rendering parameter. Also keeps the
canvas selection with the anti-alias selection, which makes logical
sense. Reduce the antialias selection to a single choice rather than
two different choices for different canvases
This reverts commit e587e5029c487e69222f6bf545a0ad0f07e0f210.
Revert "Print dlgs: add panel printer to select the current printer. Windows only"
This reverts commit 4ef2853ae51afa028350c0c42ee01286837e5178.
Linux printing for some systems blanked the printouts when the gal
screensize was set here. Restoring the screensize after clearing
ensures that the view redraw is properly scaled

Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to
repeatly update.
Also updates AUTHORS.txt from current repo with contributor names
The Cairo printing system is already used to print to printer, it can be
now used to print to clipboard and fixes the issue with opacity < 1.
However to use it in clipboard, the advanced config needs to set the new
EnableEeschemaExportClipboardCairo = 1 (for now)
The default is false.
The sheet list is returned as a copy of the cached list rather than a
reference to prevent external code from changing the list. While not as
performant, it eliminates the risk of the sheet list being altered in
ways that could break the schematic. The sheet list should only be
updated by calling SCHEMATIC::RefreshHierarchy() when any appropriate
sheet changes are made.
Note to developers: there is something inherently different about how the
QA tests are loading and handling schematics versus the schematic editor.
Using the cached sheet list for the SCHEMATIC object will cause some QA
test to fail. This is why SCHEMATIC::Hierarchy() has not replaced
SCHEMATIC::BuildSheetListSortedByPageNumbers() everywhere.
Also removes the side-effect that SCH_SHEET_LIST's
c'tor would sort the list (and write virtual page
numbers) anytime the starting sheet was the root.
Also, definitely don't build a SHEET_LIST (sorted or
otherwise) if you're not even going to use it.
Also don't build SCH_SHEET_LISTs on idle events. Better
to just always have the Next Sheet button enabled (we
already beep if you click it and there's no next sheet).
Also, use a SCREEN_LIST when you can. It's much cheaper
to create.
- Try to activate anti aliasing
- disable Preview on GTK when cairo printing is selected: it does not work,
and is also disabled for Pcbnew / Gerbview for the same reason
