Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to
repeatly update.

As long as the arc angle stays below <60°, it will automatically choose between
clockwise and counter clockwise. This allows the user to choose the direction
with a simple mouse movement.
* Split up the thirdparty code into the thirdparty folder (#3637)
* Create a new kimath static library containing all the math functions
This is part of cleaning the build system for #1906.
This adds a richer overlay to the arc-by-three-points tool in Pcbnew,
including more guide-lines and a live display of radius and angle.
Also included is ability to go back to the previous step (if setting end
angle, you can go back to setting start point, etc) using Backspace, and
Ctrl snaps the start/end angles to 45 degree multiples.
This adds new classes
* MULTISTEP_GEOM_MANAGER: represents a generic "geometry manager" that
builds up some geometrical construction based on a sequence of points.
Used by:
* ARC_GEOM_MANAGER: handles the logical flow of constructing an
arc by centre-point, set radius, set angle. This moves the logic out
of the Pcbnew DRAWING_TOOL event loop in drawArc().
* ARC_ASSISTANT: graphical overlay to communicate current arc shape to
the user during the drawing process
