Implement bracket notation for stacked pins ([1,2,3], [1-4], [1,3,5-7]).
Automatic net naming proceeds based on the smallest logical pin number
in stacked groups.
Provide explode/reform commands in symbol editor for conversion.
Supports arbitrary ranges including BGA alphanum ranges like
[AA1-AA3,CD14-CD22]
Adds some additional QA and trace logging
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/2004
Support explicit jumper symbols, defined either by a
flag that all pins with the same number are connected,
or by explicit groups of jumpered pins

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
I don't think this was the original intent, but the
GUI for setting the flag leaked out via the
properties inspector so it kind of needs to work.

SHA256 is fine for one-offs but for large libraries where we might be
running the hash on hundreds of files, the speed difference is
appreciable. We don't require crytographic hashing, just a check that
the original file hasn't been corrupted so Murmur3 satisfies our basic
requirement.
Schematics, symbols, boards and footprints all get the ability to store
files inside their file structures. File lookups now have a
kicad-embed:// URI to allow various parts of KiCad to refer to files
stored in this manner.
kicad-embed://datasheet.pdf references the file named "datasheet.pdf"
embedded in the document. Embeds are allowed in schematics, boards,
symbols and footprints. Currently supported embeddings are Datasheets,
3D Models and drawingsheets

- Add SCH_RULE_AREA to paint and plot methods
- Add new rule area color preference to themes
Fixes#10926
Contains the following changes:
- Adds a new ERC_SCH_PIN_CONTEXT class which is used to provide deterministic
comparison between items causing ERC violations (e.g. pins) when associated
with a SCH_SHEET_PATH context.
- Adds association of SCH_SHEET_PATHs for ERC_ITEMs and the sub-schematic items
which caused an ERC violation. This allows correct display of markers on the
sheets of interest only, and allows correct naming resolution and cross-probing
from the ERC dialog.
- Adds a new ERC_TREE_MODEL class, derived from RC_TREE_MODEL, which correctly
resolves component references across heirarchical sheets using the associated
SCH_SHEET_PATHs. This allows sheet-specific component references to be displayed
correctly in the ERC results tree.
- Updates SCH_MARKER to only draw sheet-specific markers on the sheet causing
an ERC violation.
- Increments the schematic file version.
- When loading a schematic with legacy ERC exclusions, discards those of type
ERCE_PIN_TO_PIN_WARNING, ERCE_PIN_TO_PIN_ERROR, ERCE_HIERACHICAL_LABEL, and
ERCE_DIFFERENT_UNIT_NET as there is no safe way to automatically infer the
information which is now stored with these exclusions (sheet paths for error
location and related items). Requiring users to (once) re-add exclusions is
preferable to silently incorrectly matching new ERC issues to legacy exclusions.
Also moves passive RLC inference out from migration to just-in-time
creation for the simulator or netlisting.
Also fixes a version guard mismatch because the spice migration was
done inside UpdateSymbolInstances (which has its own version guard).
Also changed UpdateSymbolInstances to UpdateSymbolInstanceData so
someone else in the future doesn't think it's a general-purpose symbol
instance updater.
This will make it possible to maintain sheet instance information when
copying and pasting from any sheet other that the root sheet of a
project.
Setting and getting sheet page numbers must now be performed using a
sheet path. This was done to ensure that the instance paths were not
getting changed unexpectedly from different code paths.
This change reverts the storage of all symbol instance data in the root
schematic. This was done because it's not possible to reuse instance
data when importing from sub-sheets.
There has been a fundamental change in how sheet paths are store in the
instance data. The root schematic UUID is always used when saving the
instance data. To prevent file churn, the virtual root sheet UUID is set
to the root schematic UUID when loading the project. This provides a way
to determine the project that stored the instance data. All uses of paths
without root sheet have been expunged from the code.
The sheet instance data is still saved only in the root sheet for the
time being. New sheet instances will be automatically assigned an page
number based on the incremental virtual sheet page number. Sheet page
numbers will not be imported.
Added project name to instance data to improve the readability of the
schematic file format. It also creates an opportunity to remove orphaned
instance data by project name rather than cryptic UUIDs.

ID was not maintained or used other than to ensure unique fields.
Instead of saving, we assign the known IDs to specific field names and
sequentially create new IDs on load

The commit bumps the schematic file format version in order to fix the
initial symbol default instance data to the first instance of each symbol.
It also sets the initial instance data to undefined in the SCH_SYMBOL
ctor so on the first schematic save, the default instance will be set
to the first instance of the symbol.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/12190
Unfortunately, Windows headers define a lot of macros for common words,
so we had to rename some enums to not collide.
We also fix some of the many bugs related to the new simulation
architecture and the Spice Model Editor dialog.
Prior to fixing the schematic file change churn do to instance data
changing to the last selected sheet instance, the symbol instance data
was set rather than empty. This change allows for users to set the
default instance data which is used for every new instance of the
schematic.
ADDED: Default schematic symbol instance data (unit and reference, value,
and footprint fields) can be set to be used as the default settings
for all new instances of the schematic.

Also fixes some plot bugs with arcs.
Also moves polygonization of arcs (when required) in plotting code
from 5 degrees to calculated based on ARC_HIGH_DEF.
