Also rewrites the PCBNew Find dialog to make use of the above, including:
1) searching in user-defined footprint fields
2) searching in pcb text
3) a history list in the search popup
4) case sensitive searching
5) word sensitive searching
6) the ability to turn wildcard searching on/off
7) better placement of the result when the dialog obscures part of the
window

The problem is that wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK doesn’t do the key translation
properly. wxEVT_CHAR does, but we only get to that if we skip the
event at the end of the tool’s event processing loop, which most tools
don’t do. (Selection tools, point editors, pickers, and a couple of
others do skip, which is probably why this didn’t get reported earlier.)
I played around with a couple of ways to fix wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK. Most of
them don’t work, and the few egregious hacks I tried weren't cross-
platform.
So I’m changing it so that most tools now skip at the end of their
event loops. I left out a couple that I felt were high risk (length
tuning, for instance). But there’s still enough risk that I’m 100%
sure it will break something, I just haven’t a clue what.

The point editor expects rectangles with a height and width > 0.
Previously, this constraint did not exist,
so some LIB_RECTANGLE graphic items can create issues when trying to move a corner.
Now, the LIB_RECTANGLE graphic item is normalized before trying to move a corner.
This fixes the last suffix that was missed by 168fa09f5. The schematic
backup files should have the suffix .sch-bak to distinguish from
.kicad_pcb-bak or other backups.
(cherry picked from commit b6fe4ff637)
Previously, for instance after modifying preferences or language,
they were rebuilt but the tools state was not set due to a missing call to SyncToolbars() after rebuilding.
Do not add cache library from another project to old library list. This
is wrong and can cause all kinds of symbol library linking issues. It's
better to force the user to fix broken symbol library links than the false
security of using multiple cache libraries.
Use correct paths when appending schematic outside of the current project
path when hierarchical sheets are appended. If the path can be relative,
give the user the option to use either relative or absolute paths.
Do not change symbol library names in schematics appended from a source
outside the current project. This will almost ensure the symbol library
links will be broken in the source project.
When the appended schematic is from another project, attempt to check all
of the possible combinations of symbol library table importing that could
cause broken symbol library links and give the user the option of canceling
the append operation or live with the possibility that there may be broken
symbol library links.
When the append schematic is in the current project path but not part of
the schematic, check to see if there are any library nicknames that do
no exist in the project symbol library table and give the user a chance
to cancel the append process.
This reverts commit eadf6d93bc.
because the issue with net names containing '/' is not actually inside the netlist.
This commit eadf creates issues with ngspice 2.8 and older, and do not fix anything in ngspice
Selecting in Eeschema has major issues, as does highlighting in
pcbnew. So for now we do highlighting in eeschema and selecting
in pcbnew. Improving highlighting for pcbnew would be the next
logical step....

wxLog::SetActiveTarget() was initialised to libedit frame,
but the active target was not released after closing and deleting libedit, thus creating a crash on Kicad exit.
The full filename comparison to detect the reuse of a file was broken on Windows
because it mixed a native filename notation (containing the drive id),
and a unix notation (no drive in filename, different separator).
Because the pickers are called with an Activate()/Wait() pair, any
usurping tool gets in between the picker handling the cancel (due
to activation) and the picker client doing a PopTool(). The new
tool is therefore pushed before the old tool is popped.
