Bug Description

It would be useful for KiCad to have an option to generate one merge drill file for both PTH and NPTH holes, so they can be fabricated by Oshpark without workarounds such as http://koblents.com/Ches/Original-Work/84-Kicad---Osh-Park-and-NPTH/

According to Oshpark: "We support both vias (plated holes) and unplated holes. The fab uses the presence of copper underneath the drill hit to determine plating. Copper underneath the drill indicates a via/plated hole, no copper indicates an unplated hole."
