These commands are useful but are "hiden"
inside the "Utilities" menu, so not many poeple know about them.
By placing them in a toolbar, they will be more discoverable.
Use the value of the parameters `Draft_array_fuse`
and `Draft_array_Link` to set the default value
of the `Fuse` and `Link array` checkboxes in the task panels.
These default to `False` and `True`, respectively.
Whenever the user toggles a checkbox
the new value of the parameter is stored so that when
the command is used again the last state of the checkbox
is remembered.
These changes are added by carlopav in pull request #3102.
We add them in this commit already so that this branch and
that branch are easier to rebase and merge.
Previously it was placed in the `annotation` category
but since it creates a group of shapes, it is better
in the `creation` category.
Also small fixes in the menu text and tooltip.
Small spacing fixes like imports in separate lines
for more clarity, and the position of the license.
Also use the new `messages` module to provide
the functions to print text to the console.
Use two `DEBUG` variables to print information about
the `ToDo` class in order to see the scheduled commands
when the graphical commands are executed.

As discussed in the previous request, the icon
is saved as Plain SVG, meaning that Inkscape-specific tags
are removed. This is better for compatibility purposes
for use with other SVG editors and viewers.
The translate mechanism in Draft depends on the `QtCore`
`translate` function. This is defined in its own module
so that `DraftGui.py` is not as big and hard to manage.
Other modules in Draft can import the translate function
without needing to import the entire interface, which
often causes errors and circular dependencies.
We can import `QtCore.QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP` at the top level
in `Draft.py` because it does not depend on the graphical
interface.
Many auxiliary tools used by `Draft.py` can be defined
in another module. Many functions are moved to this module
so that `Draft.py` isn't as big and hard to maintain.
The following is a list o functions that were moved:
`get3DView`, `autogroup`, `dimSymbol`, `dimDash`,
`removeHidden`, `formatObject`, `getSelection`,
`getSelectionEx`, `select`, `loadTexture`.
Moreover, many of these functions were renamed
to comply better with PEP8 guidelines,
particularly the use of `snake_case`. For example,
`get3DView` is now `get_3d_view`.
Aliases are provided for the old names so that
other functions and classes that depend on these
won't break. The new names should be the official
programming interface, while the old names
should be deprecated at some point in the future.
