Having thread pool as its own singleton in the library meant that each
kiface had its own threadpool, leading to many multiples of the threads
being started. Placing a singleton class in PGM_BASE ensures that all
kifaces use the same thread pool.
The singleton class can be extended to provide single instance
guarantee for any element across kifaces
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
We need the object in m_locale for a bit more things during program cleanup,
especially on macOS
The destructor of PGM_BASE is sufficient allowance of lifetime.

On Linux, this directory is shared between users, so a multi-user
machine needs to let the other users have access to the directory to
create their own lockfiles.
Removes old defines and work arounds for earlier wx versions and adds a
CMake requirement to use at least 3.2 (or the minimum matching wxPython
version)
If KiCad crashes or exits without deleting the lockfile, don't show the
warning message unless we are not the one who locked it or there are
other KiCad instances running locally.
This should catch 99% of the cases where the message is shown
incorrectly. There may be some corner cases where the lock file is
created on a network drive using two different machines with the same
name and same user but these cases should be (famous last words)
sufficiently rare as to not be observed in practice
The wxWidgets message catalog contains translations for strings that are
in the wx-provided dialogs, and these strings aren't contained in our
message catalog.

This is purely loading in the background based and has no artificial delay.
Will be more useful once kicad.exe ends up loading more on launch immediately ;)
Right now the splash is probably visible the longest launching pcbnew standalone.
The actual splash image can be considered a placeholder
