Hello!

I hacked together a group selection concept looking like this:

It can assign BOARD_ITEM to a specific group for easier selection and
group manipulation. I am open to suggestions on changes, this is surely
not an optimal implementation.

Useful when you may want to keep the relative position of something on
the board like maybe a RF layout etc.

It cannot currently save the group assignments between sessions, since
that would require some changes to the file format. That would need some
agreement that this is indeed wanted.

it also doesnt work on zones right now.

ps: I do not now the best way to attach a patch file.
I added my feature
commit
git pull
fix conflict
commit

Anyone have any steps on how to get one patch file for this, now I got
one patch file, and a merge.
