No Net Vias throw DRC error "unconnected end"
Description
Assigning no net to a via in PCBNew will result in a DRC error as KiCAD registers this as having an unconnected end. Expected behavior is to not have a DRC error as the via has no connected ends, which should be appropriate for a no net via, which is essentially a small unplated drill hole of the same dimension as other vias in the board.
Steps to reproduce
- Place a via.
- Assign "no net" by choosing the blank text from the net assignment drop down menu.
- Run DRC.
