IPC2581 is a modern production file exchange system. It provides
single-file data output for an entire board including BOM and netlist
information.

WxString does not allocate space for wide strings needed during
conversion unless the string is explicitly wide. This can cause buffer
over/underflow

(cherry picked from commit 7601a3385f)
This is particularly important when reading legacy projects as 0 is
what signals the painter to use the old algorithm (1/2 pin name/number
size).

These settings objects could be created in a constructor/destructor
so we should catch the exception since those are noexcept.
Also change the settings trace to match the other kicad traces
as KICAD_SETTINGS
The fix convert all std::string storing a path to wxString (unicode support)
wxString were already used at many place to store paths, but not all.
For internal calculations mixing char strings and wide char strings is a recipe
for bug: any missing conversion between UTF8 and wxString breaks paths.
Various architecture upgrades to support this.
Creating a BOARD now requires a valid PROJECT, which caused
some (mostly transparent) changes to the Python API internals.
ADDED: Project local settings file
CHANGED: Board design settings are no longer stored in PCB file
CHANGED: Net classes are no longer stored in PCB file
CHANGED: Importing board settings now reads boards, not just projects
