Add [tool.black] config to pyproject.toml and Black hook to
.pre-commit-config.yaml (rev 26.3.1), then auto-format all Python
source and test files with line-length=100, target-version=py310.

Phase 1 critical fixes addressing three high-priority issues:
Issue #36 - Windows IPC backend crash (os.getuid not available):
- Add platform detection to skip Unix-specific socket paths on Windows
- Use hasattr check before calling os.getuid()
- Windows now uses auto-detect fallback (named pipes)
- Maintains full Unix socket support on Linux/macOS
Issue #37 - Windows schematic file creation broken:
- Generate unique UUIDs instead of invalid all-zeros UUID
- Add explicit UTF-8 encoding for cross-platform compatibility
- Force Unix line endings (LF) to prevent Windows CRLF issues
- Update template file with valid placeholder UUID
- Fix hardcoded /tmp/ paths in wire_manager.py and pin_locator.py
Issue #35 - JLCPCB download limited to 100 parts:
- Change batch_size from 1000 to 100 to match tscircuit API limit
- Remove premature loop termination when batch < batch_size
- Add documentation explaining API limitation
- Expected result: Full ~2.5M part catalog download (40-60 minutes)
All changes maintain backward compatibility and include detailed comments.

Add KiCAD IPC API backend using kicad-python library for real-time
communication with KiCAD 9.0+. Changes now appear instantly in KiCAD
UI without manual reload.
Key changes:
- Implement IPCBackend and IPCBoardAPI classes for IPC communication
- Auto-detect IPC availability and fall back to SWIG when unavailable
- Route existing commands (route_trace, add_via, place_component, etc.)
through IPC automatically when available
- Add transaction support for proper undo/redo
- Add socket path auto-detection for Linux (/tmp/kicad/api.sock)
New commands:
- get_backend_info: Check which backend is active
Supported IPC operations:
- Board: set_size, get_board_info, save
- Routing: route_trace, add_via, add_net
- Components: place, move, delete, list
- Text: add_text, add_board_text
SWIG backend is now deprecated and will be removed when KiCAD 10.0
drops SWIG support.
Requires: kicad-python>=0.5.0, KiCAD 9.0+ with IPC enabled
