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
This moves a fiddly little bit of logic used by a few UI
classes into a central location.
Also means that the paths dialog learns to expand the
first cell when it needs to (like the text variable
panel).
This allows us to switch back to a standard modal dialog (instead of
quasi-modal, which has problems with Ctrl-V in a search box inside a
standard file dialog -- such as when picking a path).

Note that the dialogs which have mutliple options were not moved over
as it seems perahps not the right choice to have them save state between
sessions.

CHANGED: Environment variables defined outside of KiCad will no longer
be saved in the settings file. Paths can be configured via
the Configure Paths dialog and those changes will be saved in
the settings file if the new path is different from the default
and the path variable was not defined in the system environment.
Bitmaps are now identified by an enum class instead of by pointers.
Bitmap loading and caching is now handled by a class in common, and
we no longer compile most bitmaps into the binary, so there is no
longer a bitmaps static library.
Instead, bitmaps are archived to a .tar.gz file which is installed
in ${KICAD_DATA}/resources/images.tar.gz
The source PNGs are checked in to Git as the original CPP files were,
so that people can build without the required dependencies to convert
SVGs to PNGs.
Initial support is also added for dark theme icons, although this
is not yet exposed in the GUI.
Stubs are present for multi-resolution image resources, but this is
not fully-baked yet and could use some refinement.
Once the help button is clicked, the html help window is created but never destroyed.
It prevent Kicad to be fully closed
(closing Kicad does not fully close Kicad and leave something like a zombie process)
Normally we don't want to resize when a control is open (such as a
drop-down), but it appears safe enough when all the controls are
just text-button controls.

wxWidgets has several bugs that result in cell editors being closed
right after they're opened. There are two wxWidgets hacks to
partially address this: the SetInSetFocus() hack, and a slow-click
hack. We used to try and work-around these bugs ourselves for
single-click access, but this changelist moves those over to
wxWidget's slow-click hack.

This puts generic logic for KiCad environment vars in
one place.
Also updates the DIALOG_CONFIGURE_PATHS help to document
the new KICAD_USER_TEMPLATE_DIR and KICAD_TEMPLATE_DIR.
