Previously, only the lib named "power" was used (and therefore power parts defined in other libs not shown).
Now, all power parts can be loaded from any library.
Also, when loading power parts from the chose component dialog or the lib viewer, libs and parts are filtered: only power parts and libs containing power parts are listed.
Hotkeys: move a few global strings in the files where ther are actually used (and make them local.) and code cleaning.
Fix a few other minor issues.
*) When kicad.exe closes a project, close any open KIFACEs so that they cannot
get disassociated from their true PROJECT.
*) Allow loading eeschema library editor from kicad.exe
*) Allow loading pcbnew library editor from kicad.exe
*) Rename LIB_COMPONENT to LIB_PART.
*) Add class PART_LIBS, and PART_LIB.
*) Make PART_LIBS non-global, i.e. PROJECT specific.
*) Implement "data on demand" for PART_LIBS
*) Implement "data on demand" for schematic SEARCH_STACK.
*) Use RSTRINGs to retain eeschema editor's notion of last library and part being edited.
*) Get rid of library search on every SCH_COMPONENT::Draw() call, instead use
a weak pointer.
*) Remove all chdir() calls so projects don't need to be CWD.
*) Romove APPEND support from OpenProjectFiles().
*) Make OpenProjectFiles() robust, even for creating new projects.
*) Load EESCHEMA colors in the KIWAY::OnKiwayStart() rather in window open,
and save them in the .eeschema config file, not in the project file.
*) Fix bug with wxDir() while accessing protected dirs in kicad.exe
*) Consolidate template copying into PROJECT class, not in kicad.exe source.
*) Generally untangle eeschema, making its libraries not global but rather
held in the PROJECT.
* Fix string concatenation for _( "Unit" ) + wxT( " " ). This failed
compiling against wxWidgets 2.8 (thanks Cirilo Bernardo ).
* Base the indentation on a measured observation with explanation
(98%-ile of name-length found in library). The previously chosen 24
character indentation was too wide for most.
* Don't use a #define spilling into the global namespace, but use
a locally defined constant for COLUMN_DESCR_POS.
* Allow to select units in components that have more than one right in the
component chooser dialog.
* Keep chosen unit in history.
* Show preview of current component unit as thumbnail image next to the
description box.
* Fixes lp:1280567
* make some more fields 'const' that can.
* Instead of previous/next _visible_ element, Go through
previous and next element. Otherwise the cursor stops moving
if the item is only partially visible.
