Each editor needs the embedded files tab in the
schematic/pcb/symbol/footprint settings. But the footprint may add an
embedded file from the 3d models tab and symbols/footprints may add
embedded files from the grid. This should be immediately visible in the
embedded files tab. Additionally, removing the reference to an embedded
file in the grid or 3d models now removes the embedded file as well.

We still conflate the fieldID, the position in the
array of fields, and whether or not that means the
field is mandatory. But this attempts to clean up
*some* of that, without introducing too much risk.
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
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.
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

Oh dear, there was a bunch going on here. Firstly the move from int
to long long int for ValueFromString() means that we were no longer
catching overflows (as we were C-style casting it back to int in many
places). But even when the overflow is caught, it would run in to
wxWidgets' empty string bug while trying to log it.

Includes bug fix for catastrophic error in Add() for converting to
radians.
Includes bug fixes for the fact that the pcbnew test can't seem to
find the ANGLE_* objects (getting all 0's instead).
