- Allow setting backdrill (from B.Cu up) and tertiary drill (from F.Cu
down) width and target layer (backdrill is inclusive)
- Allow setting post machining options (counterbore, countersink)
- Update properties for vias and THT pads
- Add output for Excellon and Gerber drill files as separated files for
different drill depths
- Add drill map output calling out post-machined holes
- Add STEP export support
- Add 3d-viewer support
- Add 2581 support using backdrill property. Post machining called out
in comments
- Add ODB++ support using separate drill file for each depth
- Add DRC check for tracks connected to pad layers that are backdrilled
or post-machined
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/18836
Tuning profiles build on the previous delay tuning work to allow
the definition of track geometries per-layer for a given tuning
profile. These can be calculated from a target impedance (with
all relevant geometry taken from the board stackup), or entered
manually.
Tuning profiles can be configured to enable time-domain tuning,
and to automatically generate track geometry DRC rules for net
classes which have an assigned tuning profile.
Adds a DRC check for net classes with a tuning profile assigned
which is not itself defined.
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

- Adds time and delay units
- Adds time domain tuning parameters entry and storage
- Adds pad-to-die delay property
- Adds time domain parameter interface for length / delay calculations
- Adds unit tracking for numerical constants through LIBEVAL
- Will need future work to truly propagate through binary expressions
- Adds time domain tuning to meander placers
- Adds time delay display to net inspector panel
- Modifies DRC to handle time domain constraints
Also flip the dependence between json_schema_validator and kicommon,
and create a shared JSON_SCHEMA_VALIDATOR so that we don't have to
copy/paste the schema loading code as much
