Hi All-

I've pushed the latest code for customizing the approximation level to 
my branch [1].  Please have a go at testing it.  It includes the 
modification to the kicad_pcb file, removing the legacy 
segments_per_zone and adding a board-level max_error setting.

You can set this value in the Board Setup/Design Rules dialog.  I clamp 
it between 0.1 and 0.001mm.

If there are no objections to the approach this week, I'll push it to 
master this weekend.

-Seth
