Model SMD pad copper: exact net pad shapes stamped on their layers

Build PCM package / build (push) Successful in 6s
Pads are the junctions where traces and thermal-relief spokes actually meet; without their copper a multi-track junction necks down to the accidental overlap of the rounded track ends, or is severed outright. gather_smd_pad_copper fetches the exact shape of every undrilled pad on the net (one API call per pad, layer from the padstack) and build_problem stamps them onto their own layer (INCLUDE_SMD_PADS). Selected SMD-pad contacts get their real copper as a side effect (previously electrode-shape intersected whatever lay underneath). Dead-end pads become floating islands that the existing connectivity restriction drops. Closes the documented SMD-pad-copper limitation (prompted by the padne comparison).
