Use justification instead of orientation relative to the anchor point when
describing text direction and alignment. This seems to be the preferred
method by most users so hopefully this will eliminate some confusion.
Fix a bug in the s-expression schematic parser that failed to take into
account how graphical text alignment is defined for graphic text objects
compared to label text objects.

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.

Avoid code duplication by moving all common code to a new function
SCH_SEXPR_PLUGIN::saveInstances
Also fixes a bug that was resulting in footprint and value information
not being saved for subsheets that were root sheets in a different
project.
This change is a bit more invasive than the description above would
suggest. UUIDs have been added to all schematics. For now, it's only
useful to the root schematic so that the UUID in the project file does
not change every time the project file is save. In the future, it may
be useful to store and check the schematic UUIDs against the one's saved
in the project file.

If a field name is already in use, try to rename the new field name
(adding the suffix "_1" or "_2" or ... )
This is especially critical when a non mandatory field has the same name as
a mandatory field (was crashing before)
Fixes#8081https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/8081
The previous assumption was that a part definition would always hold
the information about the symbol. However some designs have symbol
instances that refer to a different symbol definition than that
specified in the part.

Always add a label at bus terminals to ensure connectivity. The original
design might already have a bus terminal with a given location.
If the original design does not have a label, just make it very small
to keep connectivity but make the design look visually similar to
the original.
This fix required sorting all of the LIB_PART draw items to ensure
accurate comparison between the symbols stored in the schematic and the
original library symbols. This has a noticeable impact on symbol library
load performance. It may also cause significant changes the next time
the library is saved due to changes in the draw item sorting. Hashing
may be a better solution here but this addressed the immediate problem.
A skeleton method SCH_SCREEN::SwapSymbolLinks() was added because there
is most likely an issue with orphaned symbols in the schematic library
symbol cache during undo/redo operations. More testing is required to
verify this.
