* Add SCH_PLUGIN::Save() for current file format and code for saving all
SCH_XXX objects.
* Add function to SCH_FIELD to get the position of the field in the component
not the position added to the component position which is what GetPosition()
does. This was required because saving the component field expects position
of the field sans the position of the component.
* Remove public members from BITMAP_BASE object and fix all associated
code.
* Fix the never ending coding policy violations found making these changes.
* Create a new dummy root sheet and screen when the schematic fails to load
which was causing Eeschema to crash.
* Remove conversion from UTF8 to wxString left over from a previous change
which hopefully will fix an OSX build error.
* Fix parsing of text objects to handle version 1 schematic files.
* Fix parsing of component fields to handle version 1 schematic files.
* Don't throw a parse error when a version 1 schematic file doesn't end with
$EndSCHEMATC.
* Factor out PROPERTIES object from the PCB plugin code and move it into
common so it can be used by both the Pcbnew and Eeschema plugins.
* Add schematic I/O plugin manager for loading and saving schematic and
component library files.
* Add initial attempt at a parser for current schematic file format. This
parser will be infinitely more strict than the current parser which is very
forgiving in what it parses.
* Make minor changes to the base bitmap class to support the new parser.
* Add find root sheet support to sheet object to allow fetching the root
sheet from any sheet in the stack.
* Rename the "net", "lastNet" and "nextNet" variables to "item", "lastItem"
and "nextItem", respectively, because these refer to netlist items, not
nets.
* This adds a suffix "Idx" to the indexes into the list, and introduces local
copies of the pointers to the objects we are looking at, in order to have a
shorter way of addressing them.
* The ERC code depends on netlist items to be sorted by net code, so verify
that in debug builds. While this condition is stricter than necessary, it
should still hold with the current code, and provide a good canary if a
change to the sorting code might break ERC.
* coding standard fixes
* library part not library component (no such thing as a library component)
* string concatenation fix
* and an inline harmless debug/dump function
This feature was not reliably available: neither pl_editor nor GAL supported
it. It has been replaced over the past few commits with a new zoom-to-selection
tool available in all applications and modes.
Libraries have been 100% case-sensitive for a while now; there is no longer a
need to keep this option around. This will change nothing except for any
stragglers still manually specifying this old option.
This feature cannot work reliably for reasons explained in lp:1463505. Remove
the option on OS X builds and force cursor to the small one.

* wxFileDialog ctor was setting the file name using the most recently used
path which was incorrect. Set the file path parameter to the most recently
used path and the file name parameter to an empty string.
* Remove last used import path and use the application wide most recently
path instead.
* Remove last used export path and use the application wide most recently
path instead.
