The '/' and ':' are reserved and cannot be used in symbol or footprint
names. They will cause the LIB_ID parser and formatter to fail. While
it seems like they should be legal in symbol alias names, they will
trigger a symbol rescue the next time the schematic is loaded.
Use ID_SCH as in the Eagle schematic plugin rather than ID_ALIAS to
ensure symbol names do not need rescued the next time the schematic is
opened.
Remove ID_ALIAS since the rules for alias names are the same as the
rules for symbol names. Otherwise, allowing '/' and ':' in alias names
will force a symbol rescue on the next schematic load.

Adds Cut/Copy/Paste and Revert for footprints; introduces a new
shared Revert Changes? dialog; hooks up Add Library for footprints,
standardizes the Save As terminology.
Somewhere during v5 rc cycle, the trimming of wires laid over simple
components was removed. The wires were still removed as soon as the
user moved the component again. This corrects the first behavior to
intended action for simple components.

(cherry picked from commit 9831a14ef3)
Reset lock file when saving a schematic sheet to a different file name.
This prevents a file is already open error from being displayed when
opening the original file.

Under certain conditions, it was possible for the block handler to be
entered with no mouse capture callback which would raise a rather
cryptic error message to the user. This should have always been an
assertion so users will not see this issue in release builds.

The symbol library table rescue candidate was only using the item name
of the library ID object which was being compared to the fully formatted
library ID causing a comparison failure so no instances of any rescued
symbols was shown in the dialog.

Even though slash is a valid character in symbol names, it is a revision
separator, but is not the case with Eagle symbol names.

Spice may include a list of directives that are wrapped with
.control and .endc. Such directives do not have a dot prefix, so
they need to be handled in a special way.

When expanding the drag item to allow corners, we accidentally picked up
other items in the list. This limits the items that can be dragged to
only those that are explicitly in the draggable list.
A side effect of this commit is that when converting from move to drag
(with tab), items not in the draggable list will be left in place.

Previously, when creating a new instance of a sheet, the full set of references
was cleared.
Moreover, if this sheet has sub-sheets, the annotation was incorrectly handled
Now only (and all) new sheet path(s) created have a reference cleared, as expected.
(new sheet paths can be more than one, if the new instance of the sheet has sub-sheets)

Using Title + Message wasn't working for all the dialogs which
did substitutions in the message (which was a lot of them).
