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.
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.

When Pcbnew's add footprint browser is run up, it constructs
the recently used list without checking for nulls.
Although the DoAddLibrary call does internally check for
null, it's easier to filter these out before placing into
the vector in the first place.
The same logic in the symbol tree is already handled in the
same way.
This was always possible from modal browsers and from the footprint
editor, but it's now also possible from non-modal browsers and the
symbol editor.

In the component, an m_unit/m_convert element is 1-indexed as opposed to
the library where they are 0-indexed. The 0-index in the library is
reserved for those elements that are shared across all conversion/unit
whereas it is invalid for the component.

Remove debug code
Bus upgrades: core new connectivity code
Bus upgrades: eeschema integration and modifications
Bus upgrades: eeschema dialogs
Bus upgrades: netlist export
Bus upgrades: file format changes
Be more intelligent about sorting lib tree items. (Footprint
entries, for instance, come out of an already-sorted list.)
Don't recreate menus twice when laoding Footprint Editor.
More pervasive use of WX_FILENAME to avoid expensive calls to
wxFileName::SplitPath() and string concatenation.
For POSIX kernels do all the work on the file-system side so we
don't have to keep converting back and forth between encodings.
This removes the existing constructors so that all parsing must
be explicit and callers are made aware that they need to think
about illegal characters, malformed ids, etc.

... and GetMsgPanelInfo.
Step 4 in the g_UserUnit eradication effort.
Also removes a couple of conversion routines that were close
enough to extinction.
(cherry picked from commit c75da51)
Also removes parallel implementation in favour of using the
normal one (with a new wxGauge-backed PROGRESS_REPORTER).

Add missing CMP_TREE_NODE_LIB_ID type that was inadvertently deleted by
the symbol library table implementation that broke the preselected symbol
tree expansion and highlighting.
Changed CMP_TREE_NODE_LIB_ID type from ALIAS to LIBID for more accurate
description.
Use LIB_ID in COMPONENT_SELECTION object instead of strings of the
library and symbol names.
Simplify some of the library editing code. There have been a few minor
changes in the behavior of the editor. If the current symbol is deleted
from the library, the next symbol in the library is not loaded. The
deleted symbol is cleared and the current symbol is empty.
Change component to symbol to align with the preferred terminology
discussed on the developer's mailing list.
Add separate update UI event for save library as to enable the menu entry
whenever a library is selected.
Change the select symbol list dialog to a single column using the LIB_ID
format LIB_NICKNAME:LIB_ITEM_NAME so that the selection can be parsed by
LIB_ID.
Add method to expand URI to LIB_TABLE_BASE.
Override wxApp::OnExceptionInMainLoop() in debug builds to make debugging
easier when an unhandled exception occurs in a wxUpdateUIEvent handler.
Change SCH_SCREENS::HasNoFullyDefinedLibIds() to return false when the
schematic has no symbols to prevent the remapping dialog from being run.
Use SCH_COMPONENT part reference when creating netlist rather than looking
up the library symbol.
Change all of the component tree helper objects to use LIB_IDs instead of
LIB_ALIAS pointers. LIB_ALIAS pointers are dangerous to use because they
can be deleted in the symbol library editor while the component chooser
dialog has copies of them. With LIB_IDs, the LIB_ALIAS pointer is found
on demand and can be guaranteed to be valid.
Update the chooser dialog to load the symbol library table instead of the
libraries defined in the project file and return a LIB_ID instead of a
LIB_ALIAS pointer.
Modify SCH_BASE_FRAME::SelectComponentFromLibrary() to handle the LIB_IDs
returned from the component chooser dialog.
This instead of using the library alias property. But to not break any
library. When adding new components to the schematic, copy the value
from the library into the Field variable only if the field variable would
otherwise be empty.
This way, the context menu for showing the docs is more understandable
for users, and is also changeable from the schematic without having to
modify the actual libraries.

This was the behavior before the factoring out of COMPONENT_TREE. Moving
the history at the top just required inserting it at the right point;
fixing preselect involved wxEVT_INIT_DIALOG not propagating to the
panel. Simple solution was to move the parts of that event handler to
the constructor as they didn't have to be in an event handler anyway.
