Explicitly casting parent to FOOTPRINT (KiCAD 8)
In KiCAD 8, pcbnew.PAD.GetParent() no longer returns FOOTPRINT . Suggested change is to explicitly cast it to FOOTPRINT.
Solves issue #23.
Another problem with KiCad 8 is when you want to dump wiring changes to the file, have you encountered this issue before?
