We were running into various corner conditions where a tool's event
loop would exit while the tool was still active, or the tool would
get popped while we were still in the event loop. (A lot of these
had to do with the POINT_EDITOR's, but not all of them.)
The new architecture:
1) tools always do a Push()/Pop()
2) everyone is responsible for their own pops; no more stack-clearing
on a cancel
3) CancelInteractive events go to all tools to facilitate (2)
Prevent the symbol and footprint library table editors from substituting
the current project path (${KIPRJMOD}) when adding libraries to the global
library table. This will almost assuredly fail when opening a different
project. We still allow users to manually use ${KIPRJMOD} in global table
paths under the assumption that if they are typing this in then they most
likely understand environment variable substitution.

In singletop mode, all frames show the "Quit" option in the file menu
and will quit on Ctrl-Q. When launched from the main KiCad interface,
sub-programs show the "Close" option instead and will close with Ctrl-W.
In this mode, Ctrl-Q will instruct the main program to exit.

EEschema optimizes wires by merging colinear segments. If a schematic opened without a valid
cache library or missing installed libraries and later saved, this optimization can cause connectivity
errors. In order to fix that we check each pin-wire connection and junctions if necessary.
Netlists do not accept any char in netnames (especially spice).
They must use only "/" as root sheet path name.
Especially _( "<root sheet>" ) breaks netlists because:
- there is a space in name, and special chars (< and >)
- it is a translatable name. so the actual name cannot be managed.
- most of netlist code in Kicad expects a "/" as root path.
This adds the functionality to add multiple labels to your schematic at
once by using spaces in the original label name.

Prefix the sheet name with "Sheet: " and the sheet file name with "File: "
when plotting so that it matches the display sheet rendering.
Improve the root sheet plot file name.

The grid apply code was always preventing empty fields. Change this the
broken behavior to allow any field to be empty except the reference and
value fields.

Also changes the presentation of the string when the checkbox appears
so that the "Changes will be lost" warning isn't hidden by the turndown.
This last part may require conditional compilation as it's undocumented.
Lastly, regularizes the Unsaved Changes strings between the apps.
Drawing junction dots at the line width allows users who do not like
them in their schematics to avoid having them drawn.

It's a bit of a hack because they're statically initialized and
so we can't make use of the _() macro. We do still want it in the
code, however, because the string harvesting is based off of it.
