Note to self:
LINE_PLACER::FixRoute used to silently reclaim the UID of the transient via (as used by the SHOVE's heads tracking logic).
Depending on the particular sequence of user events (the bug is next to impossible to reproduce on a touchpad), this would
result in freshly placed vias disappearing...

Avoids resizing existing tracks to match new track. Adds new parameter
to AssembleLine to allow current behavior while only preventing width
overrides when creating new lines

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
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
If the whole line shifts, we may have no points of the old tail in the
new line. In this case, we may not only not find the split point but we
may also have fewer points in the new line than were in the old head.
Clamping to the maximum potential point count prevents creating invalid
lines

Otherwise, the router might add bogus segments to the node. The root of the problem is somewhere in the logic that delivers aEndItem to ROUTER::Move() though - as the end item (in line placement mode at least) should always be an item within the same net as the head and not belonging to the current head...
If you drag a track out and connect to a pad then press the hotkey
to switch the track posture it may not switch because the track
posture selected when the pad was reached is different than the one
that the mouse trail placer drew. As the aspect switching is done
in the mouse trail placer it does not know that the line placer
already override the track.
To correct this, in LINE_PLACER::FlipPosture() if the aspect is not
currently manually forced then copy the current aspect from the
line placer to m_mouseTrailPlacer before calling the FlipPosture()
method of m_mouseTrailPlacer. This will only be done once per
dragging session as once the aspect is manually forced it remains
manually forced. This seems to fix the issue with no undesirable
side effects.

- prerequisite for holes as first class objects code
- introduced the OWNABLE_ITEM interface that defines the owning container (NODE/other ITEM/ITEM_SET)
- simplified the ITEM_SET interface
- constified a lot of APIs (ownership/JOINT management) as a side effect

- some STL cover types removed
