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 removes a bunch of old implementations of pad locking and
filtering which are no longer needed. (They're now handled by the
uniform locking code.)
Also removes some of the auto-promotion logic. Rotating a footprint
when a pad was selected is going to be surprising whether the pad
is locked or not.

Show the dragging tools in the context selection menu when a single
component is selected. Prevent the dragging tools from appearing when
more than one object is selected, as they will not activate anyway.

The new shape architecture gives us the opportunity to make text
selection much more intuitive by actually looking at the glyph
shapes. Before text would be selected when you clicked in the
descenders area (which was usually blank given uppercase letters
and digits).

Separate out zone edges (which are quite specific, and should
win over most other things) from zone fills (which are pretty
generic and should only be considered when there's nothing else).
Also excludes zone fills when the zones aren't being shown as
filled.
This fixes potential DRC false positive bugs that occur when inner layers
are removed from the board but the actual objects on contained on those
layers remain in the board.
Since Pcbnew does not handle odd number layers, this is not a perfect fix.
When the user chooses the front or back layer only options from the layer
setup dialog, objects on the copper layers will not be removed. This will
not cause the false positive issue described above.
Get rid of dialog OK and cancel button event handlers and use the proper
TranferData(To/From)Window for handling control data.
Add PCB_LAYER_COLLECTOR for collecting board objects by layer. Factor out
redundant [] operators into base PCB_COLLECTOR object.

legacy plugin: better compatibility with old brd files (current track width and current vias size, stored in SETUP section, were not read from file and incorrectly set)
The members SetIgnoreMTextsOnCopper, SetIgnoreMTextsOnCmp,
SetIgnoreModulesOnCu, SetIgnoreModulesOnCmp in the collector guide are
renamed to the clearer SetIgnoreMTextsOnBack, SetIgnoreMTextsOnFront,
SetIgnoreModulesOnBack, SetIgnoreModulesOnFront
Modified the collector and drawing behaviour for text in modules as
discussed in the mailing list.
* Now module text on layers different than Silk should work! *
Still need UI support for setting the layer in the module editor.
*) When kicad.exe closes a project, close any open KIFACEs so that they cannot
get disassociated from their true PROJECT.
*) Allow loading eeschema library editor from kicad.exe
*) Allow loading pcbnew library editor from kicad.exe
*) Rename LIB_COMPONENT to LIB_PART.
*) Add class PART_LIBS, and PART_LIB.
*) Make PART_LIBS non-global, i.e. PROJECT specific.
*) Implement "data on demand" for PART_LIBS
*) Implement "data on demand" for schematic SEARCH_STACK.
*) Use RSTRINGs to retain eeschema editor's notion of last library and part being edited.
*) Get rid of library search on every SCH_COMPONENT::Draw() call, instead use
a weak pointer.
*) Remove all chdir() calls so projects don't need to be CWD.
*) Romove APPEND support from OpenProjectFiles().
*) Make OpenProjectFiles() robust, even for creating new projects.
*) Load EESCHEMA colors in the KIWAY::OnKiwayStart() rather in window open,
and save them in the .eeschema config file, not in the project file.
*) Fix bug with wxDir() while accessing protected dirs in kicad.exe
*) Consolidate template copying into PROJECT class, not in kicad.exe source.
*) Generally untangle eeschema, making its libraries not global but rather
held in the PROJECT.
