The GL context lock needs to be shared across kifaces. Otherwise, we
can end up blocking the lock from one kiface. Unfortunately, I can't
find the issue in GitLab right now for where the footprint viewer shows
a blank screen after opening too many contexts. But that's what this
fixes.
The bounding box calculations of SCH_PINs are pretty complicated.
There is already caching of the name and number texts, but the
SCH_PAINTER (for example) has to repeat this work and sometimes
slightly diverges. For example, dangling indicators and alt
icons are painted, but not included in the bbox.
This commit introduces a more encapsulated 'layout cache' object which will
take care of caching the current extents, but also providing layout
geometry to SCH_PAINTER (and other interested code, like hit testers
on a given field) witohut requiring recomputation or reimplementation.
The extents calculations use exclusively the public API, so it's nice
and easy to split it out.
In this commit, nothing is functionally changed - the name and number
are still cached, and everything else is computed in the exact same way.
This is the groundwork for fixing this issue:

This is useful when you want to copy text content out to some
external program (or put it in a text item/box).
I'm not sure it's possible to intuit exactly what a user wants,
as you will often want to copy items as the real items, and sometimes
as text. While KiCad might be able to make a smart guess, external
programs will have no chance!
Actually add a whole new panel for symbol editor appearance control.
Use the SYMBOL_EDITOR_SETTINGS as the source of truth in a
couple more places, but the SCH_PAINTER settings are still
driving quite a bit here and there.
Fixes: https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/18830
Includes:
- Fix GAL to draw closed polygons in eeschema
- Add functionality to eeschema to draw arbitary polygons
- Update polygon item previews to have customisable edge colour
- Add new SCH_RULE_AREA class, derived from a poly SCH_SHAPE
- Add SCH_RULE_AREA to paint and plot methods
- Add new rule area color preference to themes
ADDED: Horizontal/vertical zoom for simulator plots, via mouse wheel,
toolbar buttons, menu commands, and hotkeys.
ADDED: Simulator preferences panel, populated with mouse wheel
and trackpad settings that control pan and zoom of simulator plots.
ADDED: Zoom In/Out Horizontally/Vertically commands that can be bound
to hotkeys.
CHANGED: Simulator plot scroll wheel gestures are no longer hard-coded
and can now be configured via the new Simulator preferences panel.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/16597
Other unreported bugs that were fixed:
- Fixed wierd, jumpy simulator plot view limiting behavior.
- Fixed Zoom In Center and Zoom Out Center commands not preserving
the simulator plot center point.
- Fixed simulator plot nudging when exported as PNGs.
- Fixed rectangular selection zoom being able to exceed simulator plot
view limits.
Notes:
- Provided new SIM_PREFERENCES struct to be used for future
simulator preferences set via the simulator preferences dialog.
- Bundled pre-existing EESCHEMA_SETTINGS::SIMULATOR settings into
EESCHEMA_SETTINGS::SIMULATOR::VIEW.
- Replaced mpWindow::EnableMouseWheelPan with more general
SetMouseWheelActions.
- Refactored and tidied up wxMathPlot's mpWindow code involved with
fitting, zooming, and panning.
- Consolidated long lists of duplicated member variable initializers to
a new mpWindow private delegated constructor.
- Provided provisional Zoom In/Out Horizontally/Vertically toolbar
icons that need improvement by a graphics designer.
- Provided gitignore entries for the Qt Creator IDE
