Pads count all pads/pins on the board including unconnected and NPTH.
Nodes count only the pads that can connect to a net and are therefore
routable. These were being calculated as the same number (displayed in
the info bar at the bottom of the screen)
Connectivity searches were slow for large, complex boards. This was
partly due to the need to search all lists for possible connections
between anchors.
We remove this requirement by creating an RTree based on items' bounding
boxes similar to the PNS router. Then we get both the colliding items
and search forward/backward to see if there are connections between the
anchors and the other item.
Because we use RTree, we no longer need the maintenance overhead of multiple
item lists and an anchor list in the connectivity class.

On large boards with high pad-count modules, searching each pad for hits
becomes expensive. We eliminate many of the pad searches by first
checking the module's bounding box before iterating over pads to look
for hits.
m_Zone is a fully deprecated list of SEG_ZONE items (similar to TRACK), used to fill copper zones in *very old* boards.
it is even unlikely there are still boards that use them.
So it should be removed one day.
When reading netlist or updating board from schematic, if the
changes leave a zone with a net with no pads then change the
zone's net to the new net of one of it's connections.
Also improves update-board-from-schematic's dry run reporting
to include zone nets and single-pad nets.

The previous algorithm stopped whenever it entered a pad, which
sometimes leaves small track segments inside the pad. This one
keeps going as long as each segment gets us closer to the center
of the pad.

Replace all instances of "component" and "part" with "symbol" when
referring to schematic and library symbols.
Replace all instances of "component" with "footprint" when referring to
board and library footprints.
Minor dialog layout fixes to some of the dialogs impacted by the UI
string changes.
- renamed connectivity.[h|cpp] to connectivity_data [.h|.cpp] so that the file name matches the main class name.
- GetNetItems() now returns a vector instead of a list
- fixed netcode propagation bug
- factored out EDIT_TOOL::m_offset, now selection offset is stored in SELECTION class
- added VECTOR2I-based Move/Flip/Rotate methods in BOARD_ITEM
Now the heirarchical sheet selection feature includes tracks that belong
to a net spanning multiple sheets, but only by doing a logical connection
from the pads of the modules. This is to be able to select connections
between components on the same sheet. For example if the sheet contains a
star power connection or something similar, then most of the sheet local
connections will now also be included.
- support for background color setting
- removed several global config settings (such as g_Drc_On)
- wrapped most of global config settings in PCB_GENERAL_SETTINGS class
- reorganized PCB general options dialog to clearly mark which options concern only the legacy canvas
- new GAL feature for legacy users: double-click (or E) to change track width available as an option.

This commit was too broad and not cognizant of the purpose of the class
UTF8.
Add MAYBE_VERIFY_UTF8() macro, which can trap non-UTF8 encoded strings in
debug builds.
Use that macro conditionally in class UTF8 to trap non-UTF8 encoded strings
being put into UTF8 instances.
As CONNECTIVITY_DATA was not updated during the process,
it contained stale pointers leading to crash. Now the connectivity
is updated as the changes occur.
Another issue was the single pad net removal algorithm
relied on sorting pads by net name. The algorithm has been rewritten
to take advantage of the new algorithm.

The incorrect method ZONE_CONTAINER::AppendCorner() is also fixed:
It was expecting the corner must be added to the main outline, but this is a false expectation:
it can be added to a hole inside the zone outline.
Removes the need of using the legacy code in polygon/PolyLine.{h,cpp},
refactoring all CPolyLine instances with SHAPE_POLY_SET instances.
The remaining legacy methods have been ported to SHAPE_POLY_SET;
mainly: Chamfer, Fillet, {,Un}Hatch.
The iteration over the polygon vertices have been simplified using the
family of ITERATOR classes.
