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 function attempted a poor-man's natural compare but it assumed
specific structure of the string. This broke for strings with
numberings that looked like decimals.
Instead, we use our natural string comparison function and remove the
references to this older function and its similar elements.

Save sheet and symbol instance information to the clipboard on copy
Load sheet and symbol instance information from the clipboard on paste
and renumber page numbers after loading.
Correctly handle pasting in a multiple hierarchy by ensuring symbol and
sheet instances are updated for all instances of the destination sheet.

This breaks the following functions out to a general-purposed refdes utils
header:
* MODULE::GetReferencePrefix()
* kicad_string.h RefDesStringCompare()
This acheives:
* Slimming of MODULE interface
* Placement of refdes code in common rather than pcbnew
** Testing of this code in qa_common
* Tighter and smaller includes for code that only needed refdes functions
Note: there are failing tests commited (as expected failures). These
are the cause of lp:1813669 and will be fixed as a follow-up commit.
This program has been disabled for some time, but it's not
broken (even if the CMake was!).
Merging into the pcbnew_tools QA program reduces the CMake burden
and puts this tool in the same place as the others.
This means all the current Pcbnew utilities are all in a single
executable.
The tool is now run by:
$ qa/pcbnew_tools/qa_pcbnew_tools pcb_parser <same arguments as before>
Add a tool that allows a user to run DRC functions
on a given KiCad PCB file.
The first available functions are the courtyard functions.
Also move most of the utility program logic into qa_util for
better reusability.
* Split and rewrite the preview window and canvas.
* Create a new class for handling the board information.
* Adds new render targets: openGL, legacy, and ray tracing.
* Render targets take full advantage of the new 3D plugins system and 3D cache
for a fast 3D model loading.
* Faster board loading.
* New OpenGL render is faster than the old one.
* New ray tracing render target with a post processing shader.
* Use of new 3D plugins (WRL, X3D, STEP and IGES) and 3D model caching.
* Preview of 3D model while browsing the file name.
* 3D preview of the footprint while adding / align 3D shapes.
* Render of 3D models according to attributes: Normal, Normal+Insert, Virtual.
* Pivot rotation centered in one point over the PCB board.
* Shortcuts keys improved for XYZ orientation..
* Animated camera.
* Fix grid select box update bug on context menu.
* Fix via size and track width select box update bugs.
* Fix layer pair indicator button update bug.
* Fix auto track width tool bar control enable bug.
* Fix via size and track width select status bug in context menu.
* Fix layer select box and layer control widget select bug when current
layer is removed.
* Add virtual function to notify objects derived from EDA_DRAW_FRAME that
the units setting has changed.
* Coding policy class naming fixes.
* Split out application specific command IDs to prevent unnecessary rebuilding.
* Eliminate duplicate menu and tool bar command IDs.
* Split component library editor and viewer definitions to separate header files.
* More component library and document file merge code.
* A bunch of minor string readability and consistency fixes.
