This isn't the best possible UX (having the various modes immediately
available as graphical affordances would be best). But it's somewhat
discoverable, and at least shows the hotkey, if any, and it in the
context menu and not hidden in a toolbar right click menu. So if the
affordance-type system doesn't make it for v10, this will at least
provide something in eeschema.
This is (now) fairly easy to slot into the PCB point editor
framework.
In this mode, the endpoints adjust only the endpoints on the existing
radius. Radius can ve changed with the midpoint point. The center
point moves the arc, as in the "keep center/adjust radius and angle"
mode.

- Adds time and delay units
- Adds time domain tuning parameters entry and storage
- Adds pad-to-die delay property
- Adds time domain parameter interface for length / delay calculations
- Adds unit tracking for numerical constants through LIBEVAL
- Will need future work to truly propagate through binary expressions
- Adds time domain tuning to meander placers
- Adds time delay display to net inspector panel
- Modifies DRC to handle time domain constraints
* Manage the settings using the settings manager for better lifetimes
* Better architect the internals and JSON to make it easier to identify
the various tool types
The dialogs will launch their own quasi modal dialogs, which reparent
themselves to the TLW. When closing, on GTK, they will focus the TLW,
leading to events being handled while the initial quasi modal dialog is
still showing.

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 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).

This involves recasting the array tool from the slightly
eccentric ARRAY_CREATOR class into a full-blown TOOL, which
allows it to usefuly store state asd the dialog hides. This
is modelled on the POSITION_RELATIVE_TOOL strategy.
The by-radius-and-point mechanism is removed entirely,
as it's very fiddly and hard to describe in the UI,
and what you probably really want to do is get your
item onto the circle with tools like "move exact",
and then define the circle origin (now using the picker
tool)
