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)

We have a dialog shim that raises the ERC dialog in front of the
schematic frame, which is useful for keeping the ERC dialog visible
during debugging. But mouse move events do not pass through to the
schematic, resulting in a captured mouse pointer but no drawing updates.
As a work-around we close the ERC dialog while placing new components.
Previous ERC data still exist when the window is launched again.

Unifies the different sections of hotkeys so that we are not storing two
[eeschema] or [pcbnew] sections in two different files.
Previous hotkey definitions are loaded at start if they exist but are
overwritten by the new format, if it exists. Changes to hotkeys save
only in the combined format.
Hotkey editor for each application only shows the hotkeys relevant to
that application.

This also makes the dialog modeless so that one switch between
sheets while annotating to choose the base numbers for each
sheet (assuming they don't like the base number we pick because
of the order of the sheets).

Also fixes:
- forcing the annotation scope to "full schematic" when run
as a prerequisite to Generate Netlist.
- a long-standing bug where displaying extra items in a dialog
would mess up the height of the HTML_REPORT_PANEL (becasue
we were setting the html window's height rather than its
parent flexgrid.
- initializing the annotation radio buttons to safe values
(full schematic and keep existing)

After Eagle project import, schematic and board netlists are inconsistent:
footprints do not have sheetpaths assigned, schematics are unannotated.
One can update netlist either by references or timestamps, but timestamps
are empty in pcbnew, and updating by reference must by preceded by
annotation which may lead to broken links between board and schematics
(Eagle does not require references to end with a number, so KiCad annotater
will add numbers in such cases).
To fix the problem, there is a two step netlist update:
- update by reference without the annotation step, to assign
correct sheetpaths to footprints
- update by timestamp, after symbols are annotated, in order to
update references in the board

Board update KiWay request may now contain options in the message
payload:
- "no-annotate": do not enforce annotation
- "quiet-annotate": annotate without displaying a dialog
- "by-reference": update netlist by reference, no dialog displayed
- "by-timestamp": update netlist by timestamp, no dialog displayed
