Dramatic simplification of legacy code by separating code and data and applying some later C++.
Function removed from Application.cpp as it was in a anonymous namespace and could not easily be subjected to unit testing.
Added ProgramOptionsUtilities.h
Fixes the matching algorithm when provided a vector of existing names:
The original algorithm was equivalent to a 'startswith' algorithm, when it should
have been testing for exact and complete string equality. This also does some
refactoring to rename and clarify variables and functions, simplifies some
functions by using standard library calls when possible, and addresses various
linter complaints. It also applies our current clang-format to the files.

===========================================================================
The former system of autoclosing messageboxes is removed in favour of the Notification Area.
Adds a few new Expression functions with the goal to:
- Simplify Placement, Rotation, Vector and Matrix object creation.
- Add new matrix functions for rotation and translation.
=======================================
Refactor:
- Substitute the use of variadic templates with parameter packs.
- Use recently incorporated external library "fmt" to handle printf like formating.
- Extensive cleaning of pragmas and unnecessary forward declarations.
- Parameter packs and libfmt provide a much stronger type checking now, so
conversions that are by standard implicit as bool to int need an explicit static_cast
to avoid compilation warnings.
Extension:
- Include a notifier field, so that the originator of the message can be provided. E.g. Document#DocumentObject
- Include a new type of message called CriticalMessage, this message is intended to have
special behaviour in the future. Namely, it will be used to notify forward compatilibity issues.
It will be used to substitute the current signal/slot mechanism.
- Include two new types of messages for user notifications (Notification and TranslatedNotification). This messages
will be use to convey UI notifications intended for the user (such as non-intrusive message about the usage of a tool). There
are two versions to mark whether the string provided as a message is already translated or not. When using the console system for
notifications, these notifications may originate from the App or the Gui. In the former, it is generally the case that the strings
of messages are not (yet) translated (but they can be marked with QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP). In the latter, often the messages to be provided
are already translated.
Python support for CriticalMessage, Notification and TranslatedNofification, including shortcuts:
Crt = FreeCAD.Console.PrintCritical
Ntf = FreeCAD.Console.PrintNotification
Tnf = FreeCAD.Console.PrintTranslatedNotification
====================================================
Before this commit there is a function getFullName(), which
produces a string in the form document#objectname. For "document"
the real name of the document is taken, whereas for objectname it
is the initial name (Sketch, Sketch001), not the label.
The new function fo this commit, getFullLabel(), provides a string
documentlabel#documentobjectlabel, that are
probably easier to identify for end users.
This adds a function cbrt(arg) to the freecad-expressions that computes
the cube root of arg. Instead of arg^(1/3) this handles the units of the
argument, so that one can compute units from p.e. ml to mm.
cbrt(27 ml) → 30 mm
instead of
(27 ml)^(1/3) → 30
