Derived symbols were causing the symbol properties grid to assume that
the reference could not be edited because derived symbols inherit the
reference from the parent symbol. The flattened symbols in the schematic
still have the parent set which cause the issue. Clearing the parent of
the flattened symbol resolves the issue.
Fix a minor bug in the symbol information of derived symbols show in the
symbol chooser dialog.
Fixes#3723https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3723
ADDED: a config option to select (when clicking on a pin) the parent symbol
or only the pin.
Previously, when cliking on a pin, the parent symbol was selected.
Allowing the pin selection is mandatory in cross probing, and to display the pin
characteristics in some cases, for instance if a pin is flagged by the ERC tooL.
There is no need to create a new root symbol and re-parent all derived
symbols when renaming a root symbol. Just rename the buffered root
symbol.
Test for duplicate symbol names when validating the properties dialog
information to prevent broken symbol pointers.
Fix a field drawing bug when editing derived symbols.
Fix bug to insure duplicate symbol names cannot exist in a library.

The library manager update part function was orphaning the root symbol
of derived symbols when the root symbol was edited. Re-parent the
inherited symbols when updating a root symbol.
Update the mandatory field attributes whenever the parent is set for
derived parts. This will show the fields with the correct attributes
in the symbol editor and viewer.
Using std::unique_ptr to hold the current symbols was deleting the
pointer on symbol selection changes causing the pointer in the library
manager buffer to be stale in some cases. Revert back to using a
simple pointer and manual clean up as required.
Prevent derived symbols from being saved to a different library to
prevent orphaned symbols.
Fixes kicad/code/kicad#3649
ADDED new option to set selection highlight thickness.
Also change selection shadow width constants to
make the selection thickness change less drastically
with the zoom level.
This change completely removes the LIB_ALIAS design pattern an replaces
it by allowing LIB_PART objects to inherit from other LIB_PART objects.
The initial implementation only allows for single inheritance and only
supports the mandatory fields in the derived part because that is all
that the current symbol library file format will support. Once the new
file format is implemented and saving to the old file format is deprecated,
more complex inheritance will be added. The LIB_ALIAS information saved
in the document files was move into the LIB_PART object. This change
impacts virtually every part of the schematic and symbol library editor
code so this commit message is woefully incomplete.
REMOVE: Removed the symbol aliases concept from the schematic and symbol
editors and the symbol viewer.
NEW: Replace the symbol alias concept with simple inheritance that allows
a library symbol to be derived from another library symbol.
It happens when the spice library model shown in dialog is a large file.
Looks like the wxTextCtrl used to displays the library content
creates the crash ( GKT bug?) for large texts.
The fix is to replace this wxTextCtrlt by a wxStyledTextCtrl.
It has advantages (does not crash... and much faster display) and
inconvenients (cannot disable editing).

The sort routine requires the value to be true with a is strictly lower
than b. But just inverting the '<' doesn't yield strictly lower, it
includes '>='. This causes items to jump in the list.
NEW: A text entry allows adding signals by name. This includes vectors
not in the signal list, which is useful for plotting calculated vectors
like `let AB=V(a)*V(b)`. It's also a faster way to add a signal if you
know its name already.

The new connectivity algorithm had a tendency to cleanup
globally, but that could insert undo records from other sheets
into the current screen's undo stack. Needless to say, this
was a recipie for segfaults.

Note that since the markup might exist for other reasons, it has
to be turned on with a preference setting. (It goes through a set
of bitflags so the same architecture can be used for other markup
structures that we might want to support in the future.)
Note also that this is more about engineering nomenclature than
visual formatting. In that respect it's more similar to overbar
than italic or bold.
When placing a new component in the schematic, this allows the user to
iterate through all units in the selected component without re-opening
the choose part dialog. It also allows the optional addition of
multiple copies of the same component to be placed in the schematic.

This makes the pcbnew multiline text editor natively accept tabs in the
same manner as eeschema and extracts key handling routines to the shim
to allow undo/redo.
Also allows Ctrl-Y under Linux in addition to other platforms. While
not as popular as Ctrl-Shift-Z, it is utilized for Redo in some contexts
When editing symbol library reference, this ensures that all units are
modified by the same action and the component is not represented by its
subunits.

Control ordering is critical to make dialog mnemonics work correct. The
static text with the mnemonic must immediately proceed the control and
no additional controls can be added between static text/control pair.
Fixing this required adding the units static text controls after all of
the mnemonic static text controls and their associated edit controls.
Mnemonics do not work for read only controls so all of the combobox
controls were moved after the text controls.
