Renamed to makeElementCompound and modified as little as possible to get it to compile in the new framework. All required auxilliary methods are also brought in.
Issue 8064 occurs when FreeCAD passes a Voronoi diagram to
Boost that becomes self-intersecting when Boost truncates the
diagram's coordinates to integers. This occurs when the discretizer
slightly misses closing the polygon generated for the letter by less
that FreeCAD's epsilon, then the wrapping Python code closes the
polygon by adding the initial polygon point as the final point.
This creates a short segment that, depending on the position of
the letter in the coordinate system, may end up being moved one
Boost coordinate delta away from the intended point, which can
end up self-intersecting.
Since the miss is very small, FreeCAD should treat it as it it
were the initial point. There's no need for a duplicate copy of
the initial point, so we remove this point close to the initial
point and let insert_many_wires() close the polygon as usual.
In realthunder's original version this class was not derived from TopoDS_Shape, but rather duplicated
its interface and wrapped its non-const methods. This resulted in quite a lot of boilerplate, so in
the merged implementation we are now deriving from TopoDS_Shape and only overriding the non-const
methods. The downside is that if OCCT adds or changes methods we will have to add them proactively
to this class so that they don't bypass the TNP code.
The function would trigger the creation of duplicate Draft Polar Arrays (only on Linux and only if the Fuse option is selected and the Link Array option deselected).

The reapply_diffuse_color function is no longer required anyway as Issue #8340 has been fixed.
Eliminate m_measurement_inch to clean up logic for priority of MEASUREMENT and INSUNITS.
Save the actual scaling factor rather than the scaling enum so a switch statement is not executed for each call to mm()
Add to CDxfRead the work to handle dxfScaling option, ImpExpDxfRead just has to set it up now.
Get the scaling factor from a lookup table rather than a switch statement
Display a message explaining what the scaling factor is and where it comes from
Remove large amount of Lint.
