Teardrop generator used pad::HitTest not testing the hit of a specific layer.
It created false test for some complex pads. Now use a test specific to a layer.

Skip vias are vias that are flashed on their start and end layers but
have no annular rings on the interior layers and do not connect to zones
in those layers
You can now select Annular ring type "Start and end layers only". This
will prevent annular ring flashing on intermediate layers and zones
fills will provide clearance. You can still connect tracks to
intermediate layers but preventing that will fall to the designer

- Adds time and delay units
- Adds time domain tuning parameters entry and storage
- Adds pad-to-die delay property
- Adds time domain parameter interface for length / delay calculations
- Adds unit tracking for numerical constants through LIBEVAL
- Will need future work to truly propagate through binary expressions
- Adds time domain tuning to meander placers
- Adds time delay display to net inspector panel
- Modifies DRC to handle time domain constraints
The LAYER_PAD_HOLEWALLS shape needs a rebuild only when the zoom level changes.
So keep trace of the last GAL zoom level to rebuild the shape, and only rebuild
the view when needed
Make the VIEW* parameter const. Since PCB_TEXT does a null-check,
it's not very clear if this can ever be null (and if it is,
why don't the other VIEW_ITEMs check?), so don't make them
all references too at this time.
Also dereference a few pointers a bit earlier to make non-null
promises sooner rather than later.
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
This means when you switch a pad to be roundable (round rect or
chamfered-with-round), you get the same behaviour as in the dialog
(and an IPC-compliant pad by default).
Also fixes the radius visibility in the properties panel for
chamfered pads (which can have radii).
This can be useful when you have a defined rounding maximum
(e.g. for an IPC 0.25/0.25 rule) and makes the panel more
consistent with the properties dialog.
CHANGED: PCB file format now supports saving/loading complex padstacks
CHANGED: PTH pads are now rendered per copper layer in the copper color;
the PTH pad color is no longer used.
ADDED: support for importing complex pad stacks from Altium PCBs
Enforce padstack-aware access to pad properties across KiCad

There was a gentle mish-mash of booleans, some with
true being left/right and some up/down, and some functions that
can flip in both axes (which is never actually done, and doesn't
really make geometric sense).
Replace all this with the FLIP_DIRECTION enum class, which makes
the intention completely unambiguous.
This also then allows a small scattering of simplifications,
because everything takes the same type and you don't have to
fiddle booleans to fit.
F_Cu = 0
B_Cu = 2
Remaining internal copper layers are even and incrementing
Non-copper layers are odd and incrementing.
This means that we can no longer do things like:
for( PCB_LAYER_ID layer = F_Cu; layer <= B_Cu; ++layer)
Instead, we have the class LAYER_RANGE:
for( PCB_LAYER_ID layer : LAYER_RANGE( F_Cu, B_Cu) )
Similarly, gt/lt tests should not refer to the integer value of the
layer. We have functions such as IsCopperLayer to test whether a layer
is copper or not.
When using the connectivity RTree, the third dimension is layer, so we
provide B_Cu with the special INT_MAX value, ensuring that elements
between F_Cu and B_Cu will be identified. There is a new, special
function GetBoardLayer() for interfacing with CN_ITEMS
Similarly, PNS layers remain unchanged and sequential. A set of
interface functions is provided to map PNS layers to Board layers and
back. This allows the PNS_LAYER_RANGE to function as expected
In Altium, copper polys will be connected automatically to their
associated pads. In KiCad, we need to do the equivalent when parsing,
which is to combine the joining copper into the underlying pad. We also
don't want to treat copper polys as proxy pads without the original
anymore.
While ERROR_INSIDE was good for plotting, 3D generation, etc., it's
not good for generating router hulls.
Also reverts part of the change to always use polygons for PNS::SOLIDs. A single shape in a SHAPE_COMPOUND will be faster (and
more accurate).
