There are two netclass name methods, which previously were not
obvious in their uses. These have been renamed to now have:
GetName() : Used for internal or tooling (e.g. netlist export) usage
GetHumanReadableName() : Used for display to users (e.g. in infobars)
Fixing the previous unclear naming will result in fewer bugs
when users start using the multiple netclass functionality, as
the incorrect usage had started creeping in to new code. Also this
will help authors of new code select the correct name method.
Make the VIEW* parameter const. Since PCB_TEXT does a null-check,
it's not very clear if this can ever be null (and if it is,
why don't the other VIEW_ITEMs check?), so don't make them
all references too at this time.
Also dereference a few pointers a bit earlier to make non-null
promises sooner rather than later.
Saves a mishmash of local HIDE/SHOW defs along with various literals.
Also provide a function that computes the scale at which a given
IU size becomes (notionally) a certain size on screen. While this
is a simple division, it's a bit opaque in terms of meaning.
Also it means the divide by zero case can be more universally
defended-against, which has traditionally been a bug opportunity.
Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to
repeatly update.

When an arc has a very small curvature, we should not waste time with
the arc collision mode and instead just use the segment collision as it
is effectively the same result

This tidies up quite a performance hit on layer change
caused by repainting vias, pads and tracks for their
clearances.
Instead, on a layer change, just disable any old clearance
layer and enable the new one (if any).

The display in the properties manager for arc tracks
was wrong. Implement a set of Get/SetStartX/Y functions
for the traces, to match the End functions.
This is needed because PCB_ARC overrides GetPosition
to return the arc center, not the start position (whereas
PCB_TRACK does return the start for GetPosition)
Fixes: https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/19215
CHANGED: PCB file format now supports saving/loading complex padstacks
CHANGED: PTH pads are now rendered per copper layer in the copper color;
the PTH pad color is no longer used.
ADDED: support for importing complex pad stacks from Altium PCBs
Enforce padstack-aware access to pad properties across KiCad
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/8182
There was a gentle mish-mash of booleans, some with
true being left/right and some up/down, and some functions that
can flip in both axes (which is never actually done, and doesn't
really make geometric sense).
Replace all this with the FLIP_DIRECTION enum class, which makes
the intention completely unambiguous.
This also then allows a small scattering of simplifications,
because everything takes the same type and you don't have to
fiddle booleans to fit.
- better fix for PCB_VIA::SetLayerSet() than commit 0c959075.
- Ensure saved via from a board and pasted to another board have a layer pair
compatible with this board copper layer count (if not, skip it)
- workaround in PCB_VIA::GetLayerSet() that hang when a LAYER_RANGE has start
and end layers id not compatible with the copper layer count (bug in LAYER_RANGE?)
- Fix incorrect values of displayed layers of blind/buried vias
- Fix possible incorrect layer order in PCB_VIA::SanitizeLayers()
- fix some display issues in 3D viewer.
- fix issue in LAYER_RANGE::Contains(): sometimes the test was incorrect.
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
