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

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

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
The diff-pair placer creates DIFF_PAIRs on the stack, which have
VIAs in them, which have HOLEs in them. The HOLEs get put in the
NODE's index, and we then crash later when doing a collision after
the stack variable has gone out of scope.
The stack variable is also copied while doing a search for "best",
and without the operator= definitions the "best" and the "original"
both think they own the HOLE.

- LINEs now own their vias optionally (depending whether a LINE with its VIA belongs to a node)
- get rid of unique_ptr on the internal NODE::Add API (and also made it private)
- make sure stack pointers are not added to the node
- use rvalue reference for NODE::Add/NODE::Replace

CHANGED: manually-placed (stitching) vias won't have their nets automatically updated
(unless the via is placed directly on a track segment)
CHANGED: stitching vias can be placed on footprint pads and pick up their nets
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/5484
This option removes copper layers from pads and vias where they are not
connected to other board elements. This allows the inner layers to be
more closely routed if the via landing pad is not needed.

* Split up the thirdparty code into the thirdparty folder (#3637)
* Create a new kimath static library containing all the math functions
This is part of cleaning the build system for #1906.
This reverts commit 41e4bc4d9fe52c81986ad1522dc3f8965a4ef6bf.
This commit requires additional testing before recommitting as it causes
issues with FindJoint().
- PNS_ITEMSET now keeps ownership info (does not rely on PNS_ITEM::Owner(), avoiding the risk of dangling pointers)
- fixed vias losing connected traces when dragging in mark obstacles mode
- fixed rare segfault when board item returned null netclass
