Remove KICAD_PTEMPLATE environment variable as it's purpose was not
clear and was often poorly defined as the path to the KiCad installed
templates.
Add a new KICAD_TEMPLATE_DIR environment variable which clearly should
be the path of the KiCad installed templates. Make this environment
variable available in the user settings in case the default is wrong
which has been the case in some instances. Use the standard search
stack to set the default system template path which has a much greater
chance of being correct.
Add a new KICAD_USER_TEMPLATE_DIR environment variable which clearly
should be the path of the user defined templates. Users most likely
were not even aware of the old default user path unless they read the
fine manual.
Set template path search stack priority as follows:
* KICAD_USER_TEMPLATE_DIR
* KICAD_TEMPLATE_DIR
* Search stack template paths
Reverse template selection dialog and project path dialog for improved
user experience.

The fix for this is a crude hack. The assertion is caused by the fact
that KICAD_MANAGER_FRAME is not a KIWAY_PLAYER. The only way to fix
this correctly is to derive KICAD_MANAGER_FRAME from KIWAY_PLAYER so
the window ordering can be corrected and the dialog can be called using
ShowQuasiModal().

Remove redundant sizers from environment variable dialog.
Improve sizers and layout spacing of environment variable and environ-
ment variable edit dialogs.
Remove path from dialog box titles since environment variables are not
limited to file paths.
Improved help messages for both environment variable and environment
variable edit dialogs.
Restore highlighting of externally defined environment variables.
* Remove ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE_CHAR_VALIDATOR::OnChar() because it was skipping
the filtering of the first character. Not sure what was going but this seemed to fix the issue.
* Added environment variable name test to DIALOG_ENV_VAR_CONFIG::TransferDataFromWindow
because apparently validators do not get called in wxGrids even whe the extend window style
wxWS_EX_VALIDATE_RECURSIVELY is set.
* Set the default button using wxFormBuilder since the OK button is not part of a wxStdDialogButtonSizer.
* Minor improvements to the HTML help dialog.
* Fix assertion when calling HTML help dialog. Apparently any dialog derived from DIALOG_SHIM must
have a KIWAY top level window as a parent.
* Create new dialog to edit environment variables.
* Add helper class ENV_VAR_ITEM to manage environment variable values and
if they were defined externally.
* A path configuration dialog access to KiCad, CvPcb, Pcbnew, and Footprint Editor
window menus.
* Add validator for environment variables.
