4e70342eae fix(drc): extract violation coordinates from kicad-cli JSON items 
kicad-cli DRC JSON output stores coordinates in items[].pos.x/y,
not at the violation top level. The code was reading violation.x/y
which don't exist, falling back to (0, 0) for every violation.
Now correctly reads the position from the first item in each
violation entry.

2945b52eae feat: Add missing routing/component tools and fix SWIG/UUID bugs 
New MCP tools added (TypeScript layer):
- Routing: delete_trace, query_traces, get_nets_list, modify_trace,
  create_netclass, route_differential_pair, refill_zones (with SWIG warning)
- Component: get_component_pads, get_component_list, get_pad_position,
  place_component_array, align_components, duplicate_component

Bug fixes:
- routing.py: Fix SwigPyObject UUID comparison (str() -> m_Uuid.AsString())
- routing.py: Fix SWIG iterator invalidation after board.Remove()
  by converting board.Tracks() to list() before iteration
- routing.py: Add board.SetModified() and clear Python refs after Remove()
  to prevent dangling SWIG pointers crashing subsequent calls
- routing.py: Wrap each track access in try/except in query_traces()
  to gracefully skip invalid track objects after bulk delete
- routing.py: Add missing return statement (mypy fix)
- library.py: Fix search_footprints param mapping search_term->pattern
- library.py: Fix fp.name -> fp.full_name field access
- library.py: Accept both 'pattern' and 'search_term' parameter names
- library.py: Add library filter support in search_footprints
- library.py: Fix loop variable shadowing Path object (mypy fix)
- design_rules.py: Add type annotation for violation_counts (mypy fix)

Contribution guidelines followed (CONTRIBUTING.md):
- black python/ applied (3 touched files pass without changes)
- mypy python/ passes with 0 errors on all changed files
- npx prettier --write applied to changed TypeScript files
- npm run build passes (tsc --noEmit: 0 errors)
- Commit messages follow feat:/fix: convention

Note on diff size: The large insertion/deletion count in the changed files
is due to black and prettier reformatting previously unformatted code
(missing trailing commas, quote style, line length). The actual logic
changes are limited to the 6 files listed above.

Note: refill_zones has known SWIG segfault risk (see KNOWN_ISSUES.md).
Prefer IPC backend (KiCAD open) or zone fill via KiCAD UI.

e4fa774eda fix: Phase 2 - DRC API fix and JLCPCB documentation restructure (#33, #34, #43) 
Phase 2 medium-priority fixes addressing three issues:

Issue #33 - DRC violations API broken in KiCAD 9.0:
- Reimplemented get_drc_violations() to use run_drc() internally
- run_drc uses kicad-cli which is stable across KiCAD versions
- Maintains backward compatibility while fixing GetDRCMarkers() issue
- Added documentation to KNOWN_ISSUES.md
- Returns violations in original format by parsing kicad-cli JSON output

Issue #34 - JLCPCB API documentation misleading:
- Restructured README and JLCPCB_USAGE_GUIDE.md
- Now leads with JLCSearch public API (no authentication required)
- Moved official JLCPCB API to "Advanced" section with clear requirements
- Clarified that official API requires enterprise account + order history
- Makes it easier for new users to get started

Issue #43 - JLCPCB part count documentation inaccurate:
- Updated all "100k+" references to "2.5M+" (accurate catalog size)
- Updated download time estimates to 40-60 minutes
- Updated expected database size to 1-2 GB
- Clarified 100-part pagination limit in JLCSearch API

Documentation changes:
- README.md: Updated JLCPCB integration section
- docs/JLCPCB_USAGE_GUIDE.md: Complete restructure with 3 approaches
- docs/KNOWN_ISSUES.md: Added DRC fix documentation

All changes improve user experience and documentation accuracy.

- ✅ Pytest framework with 20+ tests
- ✅ Pre-commit hooks (Black, MyPy, ESLint)
- ✅ Automated Linux installation script
- ✅ Enhanced npm scripts

### IPC API Migration Prep 🚀
- ✅ Comprehensive migration plan (30 pages)
- ✅ Backend abstraction layer (800+ lines)
- ✅ Factory pattern with auto-detection
- ✅ SWIG backward compatibility wrapper
- ✅ IPC backend skeleton ready

### Documentation 📚
- ✅ Updated README (Linux installation)
- ✅ CONTRIBUTING.md guide
- ✅ Linux compatibility audit
