pcb-rnd - the [oldplugins]

- -In this effort I imported a set of old PCB plugins to be core plugins of -pcb-rnd. This will make it easier to keep them up to date, to defeat -the bitrot effect. The feature plugins that got imported so far: -

autocrop -
boardflip -
distalign -
distaligntext -
jostle - doesn't work properly -
polycombine -
polystich - segfaults -
teardrops -
renumberblock - as part of the renumber plugin -
smaprtdisperse -

-The import/export plugins imported over the default set of the last official -mainline release: -

import_dsn - specctra importer - compiles, parser needs a full rewrite, it tries to read an s-expression line by line with fgets() -
export_dsn - specctra exporter - compiles, produces valid-looking output - need tester to validate the output -
export_bboard - breadboard exporter - compiles, produces valid-looking output - need tester -
export_dxf - mechanical cad export - compiles, missing header data renders exported files unusable -
export_ipcd356 - electrical test output - compiles, produces valid-looking output - need tester -
export_openscad - 3d modeling - compiles, output sort of works, models not yet imported, need tester -

- -Plugins that won't be imported: -

findelement - [query] takes care of that -
findrat - [query] will take care of that -
join-found - not clear what it would do -
lockelements - [query] can select elements then SetFlag() should be able to lock them -
sedrename - [query] will take care of that -
upth2pth - [query] will take care of that -
ratsel - written in C++ -
stipple - written in C++ -

save/load and compatibility
