We have a break somewhere in the connectivity that doesn't fully process
connections but the current code seems to catch these by forcing a
top-down & bottom-up calculation

Aliases in bus resolution were being resolved without a path, making
them effectively global nets. This applies the corrected path to the
bus members and adds a QA to catch this error
The propagation is currently (maybe not needed) limited to the global
name that is the source of the change. We also need to propagate the
global name that is changed in case the global is set in a tree leaf and
not the root

Previously, bus elements that were not instantiated as individual nets
could not connect to each other. This caused issues for complex
schematics where busses needed to connect to other busses with elements
that resolved to the same net names. Functionally, this means mixing
bus elements, which we will replace with first-class elements in version
8 but currently can only be accomplished either by using bus aliases and
this patch or by individually instantiating each bus element as a
local label

Additionally does not export no_connect netlist annotation on pins
which are both connected to another pin and a NC item, unless all
connected pins are stacked at the symbol level.
Adds testing of pin types to netlist QA unit tests.
Fixes#10926
Contains the following changes:
- Adds a new ERC_SCH_PIN_CONTEXT class which is used to provide deterministic
comparison between items causing ERC violations (e.g. pins) when associated
with a SCH_SHEET_PATH context.
- Adds association of SCH_SHEET_PATHs for ERC_ITEMs and the sub-schematic items
which caused an ERC violation. This allows correct display of markers on the
sheets of interest only, and allows correct naming resolution and cross-probing
from the ERC dialog.
- Adds a new ERC_TREE_MODEL class, derived from RC_TREE_MODEL, which correctly
resolves component references across heirarchical sheets using the associated
SCH_SHEET_PATHs. This allows sheet-specific component references to be displayed
correctly in the ERC results tree.
- Updates SCH_MARKER to only draw sheet-specific markers on the sheet causing
an ERC violation.
- Increments the schematic file version.
- When loading a schematic with legacy ERC exclusions, discards those of type
ERCE_PIN_TO_PIN_WARNING, ERCE_PIN_TO_PIN_ERROR, ERCE_HIERACHICAL_LABEL, and
ERCE_DIFFERENT_UNIT_NET as there is no safe way to automatically infer the
information which is now stored with these exclusions (sheet paths for error
location and related items). Requiring users to (once) re-add exclusions is
preferable to silently incorrectly matching new ERC issues to legacy exclusions.
Same pin name != same net name unless the pins are explicitly connected
Also add pin number to all unconnected pads ensuring they have unique
nets
