This is an alternate method of handling footprint pad net swaps that is
guaranteed to keep connectivity because it swaps the positon and the
length of pins such that their connections are also swapped.
Disabled by default, also has some restrictions on usage.
Implement bracket notation for stacked pins ([1,2,3], [1-4], [1,3,5-7]).
Automatic net naming proceeds based on the smallest logical pin number
in stacked groups.
Provide explode/reform commands in symbol editor for conversion.
Supports arbitrary ranges including BGA alphanum ranges like
[AA1-AA3,CD14-CD22]
Adds some additional QA and trace logging

If you have a pin with a label containing the letters "GND" in it and it
is not connected to a net with a label also containing "GND" AND there
is another pin on your symbol that _is_ connected to a net containing
"GND", then there is a likelihood that you have accidentally mixed up
your connections to the GND pin
Previously we halved the start / end copper layer heights, which is
not in line with how other EDA tools behave. This was also inconsistent
with adding pad-to-die lengths as we did not add back in the missing
half.

If global or local labels are floating -> error
If global or local labels are only connected to one pin -> warning
Rather than forcing two different errors depending on whether the label
is local or global
Different platforms/versions can result in very slight differences
when converting SVGs to PNGs for diffing them.

Each knockout can be approximated, and each knockout
will have m_ExtraClearance added. If a neck is
between two knockouts, it will be 2X the above
values narrower than expected.

These teardrops created by a old plugin have all the same priority.
Overlapping zones must avoid using the same priority.
Now replaced by teardrops created by Pcbnew.
- Adds time and delay units
- Adds time domain tuning parameters entry and storage
- Adds pad-to-die delay property
- Adds time domain parameter interface for length / delay calculations
- Adds unit tracking for numerical constants through LIBEVAL
- Will need future work to truly propagate through binary expressions
- Adds time domain tuning to meander placers
- Adds time delay display to net inspector panel
- Modifies DRC to handle time domain constraints
The arc center is a pseudo coordinate which is calculated for drawing
purposes. This mid point is fixed unless the arc is modified which
should result in more reliable arc parity footprint library DRC testing.
Also change EDA_SHAPE::Compare() to use the arc mid point.

Support explicit jumper symbols, defined either by a
flag that all pins with the same number are connected,
or by explicit groups of jumpered pins

When building a net tie, all elements in the footprint that belong to
the net tie can be arbitrarily close to one another. outside of the
footprint, connected items can be arbitrarily close to the tie element
but must respect the clearance values for elements that have nets
assigned to them

This is not only a useful place to hang regression tests,
but also allows to catch defects specific to loading or
saving footprints.
For example, it would catch:
