prepare for cPCIS mechanics #28

Description

@jordens

Would be great to have a future cPCIS port be easy without too much layout changes.

  • There seems to be a natural superset of the cPCIS mechanics and our old 3U mechanics.
  • I'd take the cPCIS mechanical template (handle, ejector, ESD strips, keepout, backplane connector area etc) and adhere to that.
  • Then, when doing non-cPCI panels and mechanics, just don't cut the PCB.
  • Put the IDC connectors close (!) together in bottom right corner and right edge. Make the layout switch from IDC to backplane connector easy.
