IPC2581 classifies pad rotation as clockwise from the top layer looking
down. Which means that if you have the exact same footprint with
rotated pads on the top layer and bottom layer, then that will need two
different packages because one package will have the pads rotated one
way, the other will have the pads rotated in the opposite direction.
The IPC committee clearly was too smart for its own good here. So we
hash the footprints based on layer as well and then introduce the
rotation into the pad. This increases the number of packages but keeps
the code compact

Some parsers like the stackup def and this gets additional information
about the materials/colors into the output
Also fixes an issue where we could get missing pads in unusual cases.
Also fixes an issue were we generated invalid contours when footprints
had split courtyards

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
To represent KiCad's internal units (1 nm), it's enough to have:
- 6 decimal digits in mm;
- 8 decimal digits in inches.
There's not much point in reducing the precision.
Up to 10 digits allowed just in case.
Also changes precision to 6 decimal digits by default.
CHANGED: PCB file format now supports saving/loading complex padstacks
CHANGED: PTH pads are now rendered per copper layer in the copper color;
the PTH pad color is no longer used.
ADDED: support for importing complex pad stacks from Altium PCBs
Enforce padstack-aware access to pad properties across KiCad
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/8182
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.
Add direct handling of quadratic beziers to save compute time and number
of points. Update cubic interpolation to reduce number of points
generated for a given smoothness
Cache data on open and used cached data to avoid multiple re-calcs
Remove minimum line length and number of segments and replace with
standard max error level. Allows us to specify the tolerance of bezier
interpolation
This is primarily to change all instances of wxLogDebug with wxLogTrace
so developers do not have to sift through debugging output that is always
dumped. The only exception is for code blocks built in debug builds and
called on demand for dumping object states.
- Component name ref comes before pin ref
- OtherSideView is at the end of the package
- BOM defines the dictionary so we need all items in the BOM even if
marked "Exlude from BOM"
- Fix unique REFDES indicator to increment number rather than appending
additional numbers
