This adds Reset() method to KIFACE to reload global libs stored in
global static vars.
Also refactors some lib reload code in various frames to have
common MAIL_RELOAD_LIB handler.

The pressure relief valve was not useful for common work patterns as it
forced the recalculation on many common actions such as bus expansion.
This caused it to actually feel slower than with the pressure relief
valve off.
For most schematics, realtime is now fast enough to not need the valve
and for those that are extremely complex, removing the valve helps this
run more predictably
Previous the cross-probing options were mixed between sending and
receiving cross-probe events. This clarifies so that all of the pcbnew
cross-probe options deal with whether the cross-probe is seen in pcbnew
and all of the eeschema options deal with seeing the event in eeschema.
Also updates the wording in the options panels to be the same where
possible and adds tooltips

When we zoom after centering, the screen does not display the item at
the appropriate location until you center again. Choose the zoom first
to set the appropriate scale before translating the viewport
Also removes the message bar display of assigned netclass for
buses and bus-to-bus entries.
Also fixes a bug where assigning a netclass via the canvas only
looked at the first level of bus members (and not any nested
members).
Also fixes a bug where the bus name validator tried to validate
a vector bus first -- which doesn't work as a vector bus may be
nested in a group bus.
Also fixes a bug where we were failing to check for illegal
chars in bus definitions which otherwise passed the bus parsers.
See additional comments in the bug report.

They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
SCH_PIN wasn't handling the legacy empty string token (~), but
more importantly this will allow text variable resolution specific
to the schematic.

REMOVED: Update schematic option from geographical annotation dialog due
to potential issues with incomplete and/or broken updates. Use "Update
Schematic from PCB" tool to update reference designation changes.
Forcing the footprint reference designator changes back to the schematic
without checking any other board changes in the schematic could leave the
schematic in a undefined state. The update schematic from board tool is
the correct method to sync any changes from the board.

CHANGED: When doing cross-probe zooming, KiCad zooms the selected
component to fill the screen. This makes it hard to understand the
part in context so users would have to always zoom out manually. This
commit uses the default text height in Eeschema and Pcbnew as a
constant to compare the height of selected parts or components against.
This lets the code determine how big the part is and scale the zoom
wider accordingly. Big parts get less scaling and small part get more.
NOTE: There is a little bit of debug code present. There are #ifdefs
to let developers easily swap in the original KiCad zoom for comparison.
There is also a bool added that can force each program to always perform
the new calculated zoom since KiCad ignores zooms that are close to the
current value. This debug code can be removed later as desired.
