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
This field was redundant (was generally set to the footprint's LIB_ID)
but also buggy (not guaranteed to contain the footprint's LIB_ID)
and confusing (not a way to change the footprint's LIB_ID).
CHANGED: PCB file format now supports saving/loading complex padstacks
CHANGED: PTH pads are now rendered per copper layer in the copper color;
the PTH pad color is no longer used.
ADDED: support for importing complex pad stacks from Altium PCBs
Enforce padstack-aware access to pad properties across KiCad

F_Cu = 0
B_Cu = 2
Remaining internal copper layers are even and incrementing
Non-copper layers are odd and incrementing.
This means that we can no longer do things like:
for( PCB_LAYER_ID layer = F_Cu; layer <= B_Cu; ++layer)
Instead, we have the class LAYER_RANGE:
for( PCB_LAYER_ID layer : LAYER_RANGE( F_Cu, B_Cu) )
Similarly, gt/lt tests should not refer to the integer value of the
layer. We have functions such as IsCopperLayer to test whether a layer
is copper or not.
When using the connectivity RTree, the third dimension is layer, so we
provide B_Cu with the special INT_MAX value, ensuring that elements
between F_Cu and B_Cu will be identified. There is a new, special
function GetBoardLayer() for interfacing with CN_ITEMS
Similarly, PNS layers remain unchanged and sequential. A set of
interface functions is provided to map PNS layers to Board layers and
back. This allows the PNS_LAYER_RANGE to function as expected
Also removes the plot-fp-refs, plot-fp-values and
plot fp-text overrides from the GUI, but leaves
them as job arguments.
(Note that the job arguments also separate out
sketching DNP graphics and plotting the 'X', which
the GUI does not.)

We are derived from std::vector now. We don't need our own prima donna
increment and dereference overload as these just create bloat and
non-standard coding practices
If a non copper layers is added to a copper layer for plot with drill marks,
the drill mark was not visible (covered by shapes plotted from non copper layer).
Now copper layers are plotted after the non copper layers.
* To select a footprint info, Use the bbox with not text as selectable area
* Fix also incorrect position of footprint bbox when plotting with offset

instead of corner radius.
The corner radius comes from corner radius ratio, so saving/restoring the corner
radius can create rounding errors when trying to recalculate the ratio from the radius.
Board items should not be in a group when they are deleted, but these
are dummy ones, so their group membership doesn't matter.

Fixes KICAD-6VX
Fixes KICAD-7KK
Fixes KICAD-6VH
The old bottom to top layer stack up sequence from back to front layer was
only used for plotting so it was renamed appropriately. This will be used
for future board object select disambiguation improvements.
these very small arcs do not allow to calculate a reliable center position,
and therefore a reliable radius.
So seeing them as a very small segment fix plotting/drawing issues.

It makes this ifo more easily readable.
- Remove duplicate properties
- Do not plot empty properties
- do not plot lib descr and keywords, useless in a pdf plot.
