Schematics, symbols, boards and footprints all get the ability to store
files inside their file structures. File lookups now have a
kicad-embed:// URI to allow various parts of KiCad to refer to files
stored in this manner.
kicad-embed://datasheet.pdf references the file named "datasheet.pdf"
embedded in the document. Embeds are allowed in schematics, boards,
symbols and footprints. Currently supported embeddings are Datasheets,
3D Models and drawingsheets

The overbar function in outline fonts recursively calls the text
function which already owns the lock. To avoid this, we have an
unlocked variant that is wrapped by the exposed text function

[Since 2.5.6] In multi-threaded applications it is easiest to use one FT_Library object per thread.
In case this is too cumbersome, a single FT_Library object across threads is possible also, as long as a mutex lock is used around FT_New_Face and FT_Done_Face.
If the font face doesn't include a Bold or Italic version, we still want
to display the font as bold/italic, so we fake it with freetype.
This also prevents recurring error messages where the outline font warns
about "substitutes" within the same font family.
Also allows variants on the weight descriptor to be used without
throwing a substitution warning

Also fixes some plot bugs with arcs.
Also moves polygonization of arcs (when required) in plotting code
from 5 degrees to calculated based on ARC_HIGH_DEF.

1) Unify metrics between stroke and outline fonts
2) Unify handling of rotation and mirroring
3) Bug fixes in collision handling
4) Use of VECTOR2I (instead of VECTOR2D) for world-coordinates
5) Generate outline font overbar with rounded ends and fix rotation
bugs
6) Generate wxEVT_CHOICE events from FONT_CHOICE::SetFontSelection
7) Change text-item PNS SOLIDs to use compound shapes
