This is the proper fix for the symbole preview widget. It will ensure
there are no size changes between the two panels (preview and status),
and also ensure that the status panel has the same background color as
the preview panel.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4997
The code that checked for pin conflicts to determine if a symbol needed
rescued did not check either the pin convert setting so it was possible
for a pin from the other convert on symbols that do not have identical
units to appear to not have a pin conflict. Add tests for pin unit and
convert setting to prevent that from breaking the comparison. This must
have always been broken.
Fix the symbol preview widget to prevent drawing all symbols on top of
each other (if we need to do this the code will have to be revised) and
also show the convert if valid.
Fix broken symbol cache library when saving alias symbols.

(cherry picked from commit e91f1f57dd)
The dialog was using a LIB_ALIAS from library cache to show the symbol to the canvas without making a local copy.
Unfortunately, the library viewer is doing the same thing.
Now the GAL is used in Eeschema, a link to the VIEW used by the GAL canvas is stored in this class.
When The selector symbol dialog is used to choose a symbol to display in the Library viewer,
a race condition between the Library viewer GAL canvas and the dtor dialog that destroyed this link in the same instancied class.
Now, the SYMBOL_PREVIEW_WIDGET used in the dialog works on a local copy of the symbol to display.
