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
Also fixes a bug where the pretty printer didn't insert
linebreaks for a forest (it assumed a single tree root).
Also further regularises bool and quote formatting.
These are not errors that end users can do anything about. Keep them
around for developer debugging if we want to see more imformation but
don't pop up error messages on the user's screen
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

Add direct handling of quadratic beziers to save compute time and number
of points. Update cubic interpolation to reduce number of points
generated for a given smoothness
Cache data on open and used cached data to avoid multiple re-calcs
Remove minimum line length and number of segments and replace with
standard max error level. Allows us to specify the tolerance of bezier
interpolation
Fix broken arc angle polarity due to library symbol changes.
Fix broken wire and text Y axis coordinate polarity due to library symbol
changes.
Fix broken field visibility and position on library symbols with multiple
units that have fields with different visibility and positions. Because
KiCad does not support this, when parsing the Eagle schematic file, the
last library symbol unit parsed ends up being the field visibility and
position for all units in the symbol.
Change Eagle file importer to use a two pass import. The first pass
parses the entire Eagle file into an associated E* object. The second
pass converts the parsed E* objects into the appropriate KiCad objects.
Improve handling of Eagle versioned libraries.
Add helpers to IO_BASE to ease handling of PROGRESS_REPORTER and REPORTER
objects.
ADDED: Support for importing Eagle schematic modules.

This was a crude hack that appends the library URN ordinal to the name of
the footprint so that it can be correctly looked up by the "element" node.
The Eagle XML DTD does not make it clear how the URN "ASSET_ID" and
"VERSION" are used to look up the appropriate "ASSET_TYPE" so this is a
best guess and seems to work correctly.
The inferred edge clearance dialog had to be disabled when importing third
party boards because on GTK (and possibly other platforms) the dialog would
completely hang KiCad preventing the imported board and possible schematic
from being saved.

A '\' in a string is encoded as \\.
A '"' in a string is encoded as \".
But prettify parser did not take in account a string encoded as "xx\\" (for xx\)
So we need to verify if a sequence is xx\" or xx\\", i.e. if there are a odd
count of backslashes before a '"'
