This is a zero-dimensional object that can be used for snapping
and documentation of useful, but non-physical features on a
board or footprint. They do not correspond to any physical
output in exports or plots.
Points do have a "size", but this is a graphical property only
and determines how large they are drawn on the board.
They also have a layer, which allows them to be selected and
made visible according to layer filters.

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
