Make the VIEW* parameter const. Since PCB_TEXT does a null-check,
it's not very clear if this can ever be null (and if it is,
why don't the other VIEW_ITEMs check?), so don't make them
all references too at this time.
Also dereference a few pointers a bit earlier to make non-null
promises sooner rather than later.
Saves a mishmash of local HIDE/SHOW defs along with various literals.
Also provide a function that computes the scale at which a given
IU size becomes (notionally) a certain size on screen. While this
is a simple division, it's a bit opaque in terms of meaning.
Also it means the divide by zero case can be more universally
defended-against, which has traditionally been a bug opportunity.
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
There was a gentle mish-mash of booleans, some with
true being left/right and some up/down, and some functions that
can flip in both axes (which is never actually done, and doesn't
really make geometric sense).
Replace all this with the FLIP_DIRECTION enum class, which makes
the intention completely unambiguous.
This also then allows a small scattering of simplifications,
because everything takes the same type and you don't have to
fiddle booleans to fit.
(It's still leaking into BOARD_COMMIT and some other places, but at
least it no longer leaks into all the edit tools.)
Also fixes some bugs when moving/copying/pasting multiple selections
containing length-tuning patterns.
When working in high contrast mode, we want to be able to select a
footprint with only elements in, e.g. silk and fab layers.
The previous design for footprint IsOnLayer had one behavior of every
other element and a different behavior for footprints. This leads to
multiple bugs as new features use the overloaded IsOnLayer expecting it
to report if the element exists on a layer or not.
For footprints, we need a different routine to determine whether or not
to select the footprint when clicking on it. IsOnLayer will report if
the footprint has any elements on a specific layer but we don't want to
use the bbox for a hittest because large footprints with through hole
pads will exist on every layer and have an enormous bbox. Instead, we
filter footprints based on the hittest of each element. This behaves in
a more logical fashion, allowing you to select a footprint by clicking
on a visible element of that footprint.

Also adds some debugging to try to catch dangling pointers.
Also adds a cache for group bounding boxes (which will be expensive
to calculate for large groups).

Bitmaps are now identified by an enum class instead of by pointers.
Bitmap loading and caching is now handled by a class in common, and
we no longer compile most bitmaps into the binary, so there is no
longer a bitmaps static library.
Instead, bitmaps are archived to a .tar.gz file which is installed
in ${KICAD_DATA}/resources/images.tar.gz
The source PNGs are checked in to Git as the original CPP files were,
so that people can build without the required dependencies to convert
SVGs to PNGs.
Initial support is also added for dark theme icons, although this
is not yet exposed in the GUI.
Stubs are present for multi-resolution image resources, but this is
not fully-baked yet and could use some refinement.
