Thread pools are long-lasting executors that have close to zero overhead
when launching new jobs. This is advantageous over creating new threads
as we can use this for threading smalling jobs and smaller quanta. It
also avoids the heuristics needed to determine the optimal number of
threads to spawn
Save sheet and symbol instance information to the clipboard on copy
Load sheet and symbol instance information from the clipboard on paste
and renumber page numbers after loading.
Correctly handle pasting in a multiple hierarchy by ensuring symbol and
sheet instances are updated for all instances of the destination sheet.

Each symbol unit in eeschema has a unique identifier. But we don't have
a unique identifier for the entire symbol. So changing which symbol
instance was unit A (our default base for matching), changed the UUID
that we were using to match the footprints.
This commit adds all UUIDs to the netlist, allowing us to match symbol
to footprint without worrying about which unit is referenced.
This still does not handle changing different units on different sheets.
