Allows the user to swap the net associated with a pad and other pad(s).
Will propagate net changes to connected non-zone items, with a
dialog confirming how to handle changes that propogate to unselected
pins.
This is a zero-dimensional object that can be used for snapping
and documentation of useful, but non-physical features on a
board or footprint. They do not correspond to any physical
output in exports or plots.
Points do have a "size", but this is a graphical property only
and determines how large they are drawn on the board.
They also have a layer, which allows them to be selected and
made visible according to layer filters.

We now allow the user to specify which in the
New Library dialog.
Also retires the "Export power symbols too" dialog.
Also gives a bunch of file and library dialogs
more explicit titles.
Also removes separate code-paths for Export to
Library and Export to New Library. The regular
code path has a "New Library..." button now.

This isn't the best possible UX (having the various modes immediately
available as graphical affordances would be best). But it's somewhat
discoverable, and at least shows the hotkey, if any, and it in the
context menu and not hidden in a toolbar right click menu. So if the
affordance-type system doesn't make it for v10, this will at least
provide something in eeschema.
This is (now) fairly easy to slot into the PCB point editor
framework.
In this mode, the endpoints adjust only the endpoints on the existing
radius. Radius can ve changed with the midpoint point. The center
point moves the arc, as in the "keep center/adjust radius and angle"
mode.

There should be far fewer hatched objects than other
objects, so we're spending too much effort finding
all the possible damage when we probably should
just be auto-regenerating all the hatching.
This also moves it out of being done during redraw,
which was proving problematic. Plus the refill
zones architecture does it during commit, and has
a lot more miles behind it.
Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to
repeatly update.

The TOOL_EVENT constructor searches for ACTONS::cancelInteractive. That
action is global, so we need to ensure it is created before we try to
create these events - so switch to a create on first use paradigm for
the events.
This moves the interactive pick point/item tool action to
PCB_PICKER_TOOL, and add a parameter to allow it to be useful for other
tools that want to pick a point from the canvas.
Primary increment is the right most bit, secondary is the next
rightmost. So you can increment 'A1' to 'A2' or 'B1' with
Shift-Alt-Scroll and Ctrl-Alt-Scroll respectively.
These are context sensitive actions that increment "something"
about the selected item.
A generic 'increment' action can be produced, e.g. by other tools
or UI events, which has in increment step (positive or negative)
and an 'index' which determines what about the item should be
incremented - it's up to the increment action handler to decide
what that means.
And then add a primary and secondary inc/decrement action,
which allows to bind hotkeys to each.
Bind these to:
* Sym edit: increment pin names/number
increment text items
* Sch edit: increment lables and text
* FP/PCB: increment pin numbers
increment text items
Come up with a plausible default chamfer size, rather
than prompting every time with a modal (and then you have
to handle when the chanfer doesn't fit). This could be
changed if it's more annoying this way. But if we had
proper edge-dragging in zones, probably would be better
than setting a chanfer manually.
Also fix the GetNeighbourIndexes which seems to have
always been broken (but is not actually used by anything at
present).

Adds the initial implementation of bezier overlay
(assistant) and geometry manager. This is only
implemented in Pcbnew - the code is common, but
eeschema doesn't currently use it for any shape.

This is a little bit like the bounding hull tool, but the
output is "exact" and it only supports the most common
source items.
By 'exact', this means that rounded corners are real arc
segments rather than polygonal approximations. Obviously,
this is rather tricky in the general case, and especially
for any concave shape or anything with a bezier in it.
Envisioned main uses:
* Creating courtyard and silkscreen offsets in footprints
* Making slots around line or arcs.
The one thing that it does not currently do, but which it might
plausibly do without reimplementing Clipper is convex polygons,
which would bring trapezoidal pad outsets for free. But that
is a stretch goal, and bounding hull can be used.
ADDED: Add support in Pcbnew for exporting ODB++ files under Fabrication
Outputs, base on ODB++Design Format Specification (Release v8.1
Update 3 February 2021).
Note: There is still a lot of work to do if we will make the feature as
complete as the ODB++ spec. However, the current functionality's
completeness is already sufficient to cover general production
scenarios. I have compared the output results with Gerber files by
DFM tool and the accuracy at the graphic level should be able to
cover most usage scenarios. Additionally, I am very grateful to
the great open-source project Horizon EDA for giving me a lot of
inspiration in terms of ideas.
The feature can be enabled by adding "EnableODB=1" to the kicad_advanced
configuration file.

This is the second piece of the layer pair preset quick
switcher that allows a action (i.e. hotkey) to cycle between
the enabled preset layer pairs.
Fixes: https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/15227
The default hotkey is Ctrl+L, as this is not bound by
default in the FP or symbol editor, and it is the hotkey
that is used to focus the address bar in web browsers,
which is a similar kind of action.
This splits the tool into two separate tools: by center and
by even gaps. Previously, this was automatically decided, based on
if the items could have any gaps between them. This was unintuitive
as it would appear to arrange by centre point sometimes but not others.
When items aren't all the same width, the results can then be very
different, based only on the starting positions.
The new behaviour is to have a dedicated tool for each, which echos
how graphical programs like Inkscape manage this.
The by-gaps method is then extended to work for overlapping items
(when items overlap, the overlaps are made equal). The logic is
centralised in kimath/geometry, and some QA is added. This should
make it easier to extend to eeschema, for example.
This also (attempts to) address some rounding issues which could
cause minor, but compounding, errors to build up along the list
of items.
Also, fix bugs in the collection filtering - previously items
like markers were filtered out only after the selection size
was used to compute the gaps between items.
Introduces some updates to the inspector, and a number of bug fixes:
- Correctly handles changes in board stackup
- Correctly handles unit change events
- Correctly handles language change events
- All layout / panel settings are stored to the project settings
- Retains ability to create net report
- Simple filter searches on net name and net class name (stored in settings)
- Allows hide / show of columns (stored in settings)
- Grouping by netclass (stored in settings)
- Optional filtering by net name (stored in settings)
- Optional filtering by net class (stored in settings)
- Custom grouping by net name match
Short description:
Works for Symbol and Footprint Editor behind an advanced config option.
For Symbol Editor it is shown for a single item selection (library or symbol).
For Footprint Editor it is shown for a footprint selection.
(fp editor allows a single tree item selection only).
Option stays hidden if current frame has been modified.
Also small fix(?) for similar action to the project manager.
(Call for the Execution has moved inside the file loop.)
