[John Beard <john.j.beard@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here's a patch for pre-selecting the currently highlighted net in the
zone create dialog.

This fixes https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1482866 (the last 14*
bug with the missing-gal-tool tag!).

The actual behaviour, as mentioned in the LP bug thread, is a bit hard
to discover, but that's pre-existing and a different issue.

Due to the use of a const-reference BOARD&, this patch relies on
yesterday's "Consts in BOARD" patch.

Cheers,

John
