The ST MB2046 reference board, for example, has all the
assembly-layer ref-des text in the format '.R42' even though
they're not concatenated.
Enable the existing but commented-out text.
If you set the env var KICAD_EDIT_ADVANCED_CFG=1, you get a new menu
option in the KiCad project window's Edit menu. Lets you modify the
settings for advanced config graphically without having to
remember/lookup the magic incantation
Sometimes, you don't want those 45° corners in your nice, clean zones.
This adds an additional mode that can be selected, cycling through
free-angle, 45° angle and 90° angle constraints
The scope, recursion, reset options and message filters remain in the
user preferences. Others including numbering, sort order and reuse are
schematic preferences.
Also, the oddball subunit display remains here but it doesn't really
belong in annotation.

There is only a simplistic multi-net pattern expression
generator here (A|B|...) with a single prefix detected
rather than anything too fancy.

This isn't really a problem, and overwriting the entry allows
for silent data loss by making a new assignment with the
same pattern as an existing one.
The resolve netclasses are de-duplicated later, so it's even
OK if the whole assignment is duplicated (in theory), but
continue to clean these up.

Skip vias are vias that are flashed on their start and end layers but
have no annular rings on the interior layers and do not connect to zones
in those layers
You can now select Annular ring type "Start and end layers only". This
will prevent annular ring flashing on intermediate layers and zones
fills will provide clearance. You can still connect tracks to
intermediate layers but preventing that will fall to the designer

- Move under rectangular selection
- Simplify available modes
- Link to new icon
- Make selection state persistent
