Remove KICAD_PTEMPLATE environment variable as it's purpose was not
clear and was often poorly defined as the path to the KiCad installed
templates.
Add a new KICAD_TEMPLATE_DIR environment variable which clearly should
be the path of the KiCad installed templates. Make this environment
variable available in the user settings in case the default is wrong
which has been the case in some instances. Use the standard search
stack to set the default system template path which has a much greater
chance of being correct.
Add a new KICAD_USER_TEMPLATE_DIR environment variable which clearly
should be the path of the user defined templates. Users most likely
were not even aware of the old default user path unless they read the
fine manual.
Set template path search stack priority as follows:
* KICAD_USER_TEMPLATE_DIR
* KICAD_TEMPLATE_DIR
* Search stack template paths
Reverse template selection dialog and project path dialog for improved
user experience.

Unifies the different sections of hotkeys so that we are not storing two
[eeschema] or [pcbnew] sections in two different files.
Previous hotkey definitions are loaded at start if they exist but are
overwritten by the new format, if it exists. Changes to hotkeys save
only in the combined format.
Hotkey editor for each application only shows the hotkeys relevant to
that application.

Add a library selector to the save dialog. Initialize it to the
footprint's library. This way a straigh-up save will do what's
expected.
However, the user can still select the active library (or any
other library) if they really did want to move the footprint.

This should fix a bunch of bugs with run-time generated sizes
that can grow larger than their minimums in other configurations.
Also fixes a related bug in the WX_HTML_REPORT_PANEL where the
min size was set in the wrong place.
Fixes: lp:1692442

Also fixes:
- forcing the annotation scope to "full schematic" when run
as a prerequisite to Generate Netlist.
- a long-standing bug where displaying extra items in a dialog
would mess up the height of the HTML_REPORT_PANEL (becasue
we were setting the html window's height rather than its
parent flexgrid.
- initializing the annotation radio buttons to safe values
(full schematic and keep existing)

Many had already been fixed but weren't working on Mac because
of the DIALOG_SHIM hack (now fixed). Others hadn't been updated
yet. Also includes some cleanup for elipses in buttons and
layout.

The fix for this is a crude hack. The assertion is caused by the fact
that KICAD_MANAGER_FRAME is not a KIWAY_PLAYER. The only way to fix
this correctly is to derive KICAD_MANAGER_FRAME from KIWAY_PLAYER so
the window ordering can be corrected and the dialog can be called using
ShowQuasiModal().

Improve dialog layout and fix UI policy issues with all of the dialog
boxes in the common, 3D viewer, CvPcb, and Eeschema code paths.
Updated the use of component to symbol.
Remove redundant sizers from environment variable dialog.
Improve sizers and layout spacing of environment variable and environ-
ment variable edit dialogs.
Remove path from dialog box titles since environment variables are not
limited to file paths.
Improved help messages for both environment variable and environment
variable edit dialogs.
Restore highlighting of externally defined environment variables.
Change action message color from "darkgreen" to "dark green" as the
former does not exist on windows and results in debug log warnings.
Change the information color from "grey" to "dark grey" for improved
contrast with the white backgrounds. This may need to configurable
on systems where the HTML window has a dark background color.
Don't translate HTML formatting strings.
The GTK+ file dialog is case sensitive however it does support regular
expressions. Most of the file dialog wildcards are lower case so only
files with the lower case extensions will show up in the file dialog.
This code adds a method to convert file extensions of any case to the
appropriate (sch -> [sS][cC][hH]) regular expression on GTK+ builds so
all file extension case combinations will show up in the file dialog.
A note to developers: make sure to add a file extension when setting
when setting the default file argument. If you do don't set an
extension, the GTK+ file dialog will happily append the regular
expression as the file extension which is surely not what you want.
There are still a few known places (mostly gerbview) where there are
some complex wildcard code that has not been converted.

* Add SCH_PLUGIN::Save() for current file format and code for saving all
SCH_XXX objects.
* Add function to SCH_FIELD to get the position of the field in the component
not the position added to the component position which is what GetPosition()
does. This was required because saving the component field expects position
of the field sans the position of the component.
* Remove public members from BITMAP_BASE object and fix all associated
code.
* Fix the never ending coding policy violations found making these changes.
