It is possible to bypass SketchObject in modifying geometry and constraints. Like in here:
https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=41326&start=20#p408409
This leads to unexpected behaviour and even crashes.
With this commit the new mechanism of constraint indices check is leveraged in cases not involving SketchObject operations (aka managed operations).
Direct assignment of properties from Python (sketcher unmanaged operations), undergo this extra indices check.
When indices in constraints are outside the geometry range, the constraints are shown as empty and the error is shown in the report window.
======================================================
PropertyConstraintList is provided with the ability to check its constraints indices against
a minimum and a maximum, and set an invalidindex status.
In this status, the getValues returns an emptylist, as in the case with invalid geometry types.
================================================================================
Solves the part of this described bug relating to reference constraints affecting the diagnosis of redundant constraints:

==============================================
Take advantage of PropertyGeometryList setValues() move overload in order to make code more readable and prevent
memory leaks (mostly by inadvertedly not deleting cloned geometry and constraints).
PropertyGeometryList and PropertyConstraintList are vectors of heap allocated pointers. Copying a vector
makes a shallow copy, not a deep copy (the pointers are the same in the copy).
For property management, setValues() function taking a const reference effectively make a deep copy of all
pointed objects. This means that heap allocated pointers of the client class passed to these functions must be
released by the client. While this sounds sensible, forgetting to is easy. In the cases where the developer
remembered to release these pointers, extra code is needed just for memory management.
This commit does not seek a substantial performance increase that would justify rewritting the code, although code
may be slightly faster sometimes.
Functions where setValues() is conditional are not changed to move semantics, as it makes no sense to make a deep copy to sometimes
perform a second deep copy later on. This code still uses const ref setValues().
CHECKS performed to refactored functions with this commit:
1) That the vector is NOT used after moving its content.
2) That whereever there is a clone(), there must be EITHER
-a std::move if using rvalue setValues()
OR
- a delete to free the heap memory after setValues if using the const ref setValues()
3) That memory is released if an exception occurred.
N.B.: A couple of memory leaks are fixed in this commit too.

Inhibit ViewProviderSketch updateData with invalid data (internal transaction).
Trigger update internally for internal transactions in SketchObject via touched()
so as to trigger updateData.
This leads to a reduction of updateData calls.
===================================================================================
On changing the geometry property (for example from Python), the constraints geometry indices was not rebuild in order to avoid
redundant and unnecessary rebuilds. However, this might cause crashes, as the status of the sketch (or its properties) may be invalid.
It also refactors into OnChanged common functionality.
This commit does NOT solve that the user may be inserting invalid geometry indices to the First/Second/Third of Constraints (invalid input).
Only makes sure that geometry indices (geometry types) of PropertyConstraintList match the geometry.
Solution:
1. Force the rebuild of the constraint geometry indices upon assignment of new Geometry.
2. Force the rebuild of the constraint geometry indices upon assigment of constraints, if they result in invalid geometry indices.
3. Introduce the concept of internal transaction to avoid those rebuilds, checks and updates in case of an ongoing internal transaction,
thereby preventing them as it was done before introducing 1 and 2 (in the case of SketchObject internal transactions).
===============================================
On Undo/Redo there should not be an unconditional recompute.
The need for this recompute is probably related to the fact that PropertyConstraintList
has invalid geometry keys.
=======================================================================
On App:Document::undo, applchn is called on every transactional object (e.g. properties) affected, which
calls Paste on the property.
Each of the properties of SketchObject cause a call to SketchObject::OnChanged, and App::DocumentObject::OnChanged, the latter
calling onChangeProperty, which signals the viewprovider from Gui::Document::slotChangedObject via ViewProviderSketch::updateData.
This causes that the ViewProvider is updated when Constraints and Geometry indexes are not matching.
The solution proposed has three parts:
1. First, at ViewProvider::updateData update is prevented while undo/redo transaction is performed by checking isPerformingTransaction()
2. Second, the onUndoRedoFinished() mechanism of SketchObject causes the call of updateData when it solves the sketch (and sets the solved geometry)
3. Third, Gui::Document::signalUndoDocument and Gui::Document::signalRedoDocument (via the slots in ViewProviderSketch) are
used to perform the recompute of the ViewProvider when the undo/redo transaction is finished if needed.

PointOnObject autoconstraint for BSplines is currently not supported, this
commit prevents malformed autoconstraint creation.

When a constraint substitution is present, a solve must precede any call to the redundant removal to update the solver information.
=======================================================
When adding a reference constraint of type radius or diameter to an external geometry using the method of select the
continuous mode method (select tool first, click geometry afterwards), with ActiveUpdate checked, there was a missing
solving to bring the solver information in line with the Driven constraint.

===================================
Encapsulation of grid internals in ViewProviderObject2D, while allowing control via property changes and protected functions.
... all options are freely accessible in the preferences editor ...
... eg. no need to check 'Show Grid' to customize grid size or snap
Also remove the sparse automatical saving to preferences from sketcher Task pane ...
... (some settings were saved, some not)
model()->layoutChanged signal didn't work at all, was never emitted by widget
Replaced with an eventFilter catching ChildRemoved to further emit the signal
