ADD: User can now decide to keep the hierarchy navigator open while working
on a schematic.
This behavior can be configured in eeschema->preferences->eeschema->Editing options.
New v6 can test multiple points not previously considered. This
corrects the test to ensure that junctions are correctly added when
lines are present.
Fixes#3729 | https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3729
Change default text size and anchor positions back to mils. Internal
units need to be converted at the source, otherwise the size will get
converted twice in the schematic editor configuration code which will
result in the default text size being off by the conversion factor.

Derived symbols were causing the symbol properties grid to assume that
the reference could not be edited because derived symbols inherit the
reference from the parent symbol. The flattened symbols in the schematic
still have the parent set which cause the issue. Clearing the parent of
the flattened symbol resolves the issue.
Fix a minor bug in the symbol information of derived symbols show in the
symbol chooser dialog.

When dragging we'll create new line segments between selection-edge
objects and things outside the selection that they're attached to.
These new lines have their IS_NEW flags set, but shouldn't fool us
into thinking that the selection contains pasted (or placed) items.
Abandon the previous behavior of always creating a new copy of the
buffered symbol which required a re-parenting of every derived symbol
to prevent accidentally orphaning a derived symbol parent symbol
pointers.
This change required something that should have been done a long time
ago by adding an assignment operator to LIB_PART. The assignment
operator makes it possible to create a single copy of the symbol to
buffer which gets updated rather than deleting the last copy and
replacing it with a new copy.
Add a clear method to the MULTIVECTOR class so that existing LIB_PART
object draw items can be removed before assigning the draw items from
the part being assigned.

m_connected_bus_item and m_connected_bus_items pointers were not cleared when
rebuilding connection data.
So in some cases these pointers were not updated, and created a crash
once the old data was no longer available (deleted)
Create an IsContentModified() function in each frame
that provides if the content has been modified, and
use that instead of always copying the checks.
ADDED: a config option to select (when clicking on a pin) the parent symbol
or only the pin.
Previously, when cliking on a pin, the parent symbol was selected.
Allowing the pin selection is mandatory in cross probing, and to display the pin
characteristics in some cases, for instance if a pin is flagged by the ERC tooL.
Do not check the connection graph when editing the symbol library table
from KiCad because the connection graph object is no valid when the
schematic editor is not open.

There is no need to create a new root symbol and re-parent all derived
symbols when renaming a root symbol. Just rename the buffered root
symbol.
Test for duplicate symbol names when validating the properties dialog
information to prevent broken symbol pointers.
Fix a field drawing bug when editing derived symbols.
Fix bug to insure duplicate symbol names cannot exist in a library.

The library manager update part function was orphaning the root symbol
of derived symbols when the root symbol was edited. Re-parent the
inherited symbols when updating a root symbol.
Update the mandatory field attributes whenever the parent is set for
derived parts. This will show the fields with the correct attributes
in the symbol editor and viewer.
Using std::unique_ptr to hold the current symbols was deleting the
pointer on symbol selection changes causing the pointer in the library
manager buffer to be stale in some cases. Revert back to using a
simple pointer and manual clean up as required.
Prevent derived symbols from being saved to a different library to
prevent orphaned symbols.
Fixes kicad/code/kicad#3649
The schematic symbol swap function still had the old pin map swapping
code which overwrote the correct pin maps that were rebuild after the
library symbol was update. Duh!
Fixes kicad/code/kicad#3661
Apparently the schematic and symbol library editors now have common
selection filtering so checking for a valid LIB_EDIT_FRAME when
filtering for the schematic editor frame prevented all schematic
object from being selected.
The symbol editor selection criteria did not include LIB_FIELD objects
which allowed the root symbol name to be changed causing broken derived
symbol links. Disable the symbols fields from being edited when a
derived part is shown in the editor to prevent this.
Add a missing warning that deleting a root symbol used to derive other
symbols would also delete all derived symbols from a library. Give the
user a chance to cancel the delete operation in this case.
