Other scaling factors (MILS_TO_IU_SCALING_FACTOR and DECIMILS_TO_IU_SCALING_FACTOR)
also defined only in convert_to_biu.h.
Allows different scaling value for Gerbview.
Needs more tests.

solution to see that it was not pre-computing constants when used in static initializers.

So we have two use cases, and need two solutions to be optimal, since the compiler 
is too stupid to do the right thing.

I think we need something else for compile time computable constants, to be optimal 
in both use cases.  There is quite a bit of code savings by using a macro for that 
situation from my testing.  To fully capitalize on this, we need to go back and make 
Mm2mils() and what not macros also, or have MACRO versions of them too.

  as a starting point
* Make double Distance() take double arguments and remove internal range checking.
* Start on EDA_DRAW_FRAME::AdjustScrollBars() and use "double" for most all calculations
  in anticipation of setting INT_MAX INT_MIN limits eventually.

* Move board item object Format() functions into PCB_IO object.
* Change file format to use layer names instead of numbers.
* Change file extension to kicad_pcb.

// This provides better project control over rounding to int from double
// than wxRound() did.  This scheme provides better logging in Debug builds
// and it provides for compile time calculation of constants.

#include <assert.h>
#include <limits.h>

    }
    else if( v < INT_MIN - 0.5 )

*) for footprint access into *.mod files and 
*) BOARD save/load

The item_io.cpp and ioascii.cpp have been set off to the side for reference
as *.notused, for awhile.

The CMake options USE_NEW_PCBNEW_LOAD and USE_NEW_PCBNEW_SAVE are gone,
this is now the mandatory usage of the LEGACY_PLUGIN.  This should reduce
code maintenance for awhile until the s-expression plugin comes into 
play.  But at least for legacy format, there is not two code bodies
to maintain any more.

A new LEGACY_PLUGIN footprint library caching scheme is in place which 
needs some testing.  It should not be any faster, but might give better 
results in a networked environment if there is *.mod files on the server.

* Remove internal units from BASE_SCREEN and it's derivatives.
* Remove internal units from EDA_DRAW_FRAME and it's derivatives.
* Use build time code to replace internal units conversions.
* Fix scaling bug in page layout sample window that I created in my
  last commit.

* Move all convert from user to internal units into base_units.cpp.
* Remove internal units parameters from all moved conversion functions.
* Revise all source code that calls the moved conversion functions.
* Remove internal units from all dialog text control helper classes.

Kicad manager: code cleaning. Dead code removed and minor fixes. support of new .kicad_brd extension.

* Scale page reference border and title block, grid sizes, and zoom factors
  correctly for nanometers.

Other minor fixes.
