Summary
num_layerswhen evaluating trace overlap/clearance, pad clearance, via-in-pad, and via-spacing checksWhy
Circuit JSON stores a plated via span by its endpoint layers. On a four-layer board,
layers: ["top", "bottom"]is physically present ontop,inner1,inner2, andbottom. The shared layer helper previously returned only the two literal array entries, so routing checks could miss an unrelated trace or pad on an intermediate layer.Conversely, two nearby blind or buried vias with disjoint physical spans do not need layer-to-layer clearance from each other. The spacing checks now use the same board-aware span interpretation to avoid that false positive.
This is the final Circuit JSON safety-net companion to tscircuit/high-density-repair03#79 and the through-via work for tscircuit/tscircuit-autorouter#2156. The router-side DRC prevents bad output while routing; this PR ensures ordinary post-render checks interpret the same physical span correctly.
