While we never allow the creation of mirrored text elements in the
schematic and symbol library editors, external generation of symbols may
cause the property to be set, which can then never be changed. This
leaves the property unset for all elements

This will make it possible to maintain sheet instance information when
copying and pasting from any sheet other that the root sheet of a
project.
Setting and getting sheet page numbers must now be performed using a
sheet path. This was done to ensure that the instance paths were not
getting changed unexpectedly from different code paths.
This fix makes some fundamental changes to the way symbols are rescued:
* The new symbol library file format is used when rescuing symbols defined
in the symbol library table.
* The original library nickname is appended to the symbol name rather than
the rescue library nickname when rescuing symbol defined in the symbol
library table.
* Escaping strings has been removed from legacy library rescues since the
legacy library file format never supported it.

This change reverts the storage of all symbol instance data in the root
schematic. This was done because it's not possible to reuse instance
data when importing from sub-sheets.
There has been a fundamental change in how sheet paths are store in the
instance data. The root schematic UUID is always used when saving the
instance data. To prevent file churn, the virtual root sheet UUID is set
to the root schematic UUID when loading the project. This provides a way
to determine the project that stored the instance data. All uses of paths
without root sheet have been expunged from the code.
The sheet instance data is still saved only in the root sheet for the
time being. New sheet instances will be automatically assigned an page
number based on the incremental virtual sheet page number. Sheet page
numbers will not be imported.
Added project name to instance data to improve the readability of the
schematic file format. It also creates an opportunity to remove orphaned
instance data by project name rather than cryptic UUIDs.

ID was not maintained or used other than to ensure unique fields.
Instead of saving, we assign the known IDs to specific field names and
sequentially create new IDs on load
