Without the project files, certain settings will not be saved by this
python call. This defaults to false (current behavior) but setting the
`aSkipSettings` to true will revert to v5 behavior

BOARD* LoadBoard( wxString& aFileName, IO_MGR::PCB_FILE_T aFormat ) crashes if a
old project file (*.pro) exists and the *.kicad_pro file doses not exists.
The crash happens when trying to convert the old config outside kicad.
s_SettingsManager is not always initialized when the WriteDRCReport is
run. We should first attempt to extract the project from the actual
board being checked. Failing that, we fall back to the static settings manager and then exit if we don't have a project associated.

(cherry picked from commit 78e737b9d8)
Unused variables in function calls can be commented out. Unused
return variables get a new routine `ignore_unused()` that silences the
warnings with zero overhead.
KiCad cannot have more than one board/project open, so disallow
the Python APIs for loading additional boards when the frame is
present. Inherit the SETTINGS_MANAGER from the frame when present
instead of creating a new one that won't have the loaded project.
Currently there is pcbnew.ExportSpecctraDSN() but it needs a pcbnew
frame set which makes it unusable outside of the scripting window or a
plugin.
This refactors actual exporting logic into separate helper and adds an
overload to ExportSpecctraDSN(board, filename) that doesn't need pcbnew
window.
They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
wx/wx.h includes all wxWidgets .h files, and sometimes creates collision
names in #define between kicad and windows headers
Moreover, blindly including a lot of useless files is compil time consuming

Note: this is a fairly basic API, you can't retrieve
individual DRC items. This is intended to be a hold-over
until we write the new Python API that can expose full
functionality (since we do not want to wrap the entire
DRC system with SWIG)
- Fix file extension for new project
- Fixes for exceptions on MSW
- Fix some ASAN issues
- Allow SETTINGS_MANAGER to run headless
- Don't flag schematic as modified after schematic setup is closed
- Don't automatically unload projects when LoadProject is called
- Don't unload project if it's the same as the current one
- Make sure to properly init/de-init template field names
Various architecture upgrades to support this.
Creating a BOARD now requires a valid PROJECT, which caused
some (mostly transparent) changes to the Python API internals.
ADDED: Project local settings file
CHANGED: Board design settings are no longer stored in PCB file
CHANGED: Net classes are no longer stored in PCB file
CHANGED: Importing board settings now reads boards, not just projects
