When editing a sheet properties, the dialog always thinks the sheet filename is changed.
It creates serious issues, like duplicating all items in sheet, because the code try to
again import the existing sheet file content.
The temporary fix does not import the existing sheet file content if the
filename is not modified.
This is a very partial fix, because there are many other issues in this dialog
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.

fundamental than the pcbnew changes from 9163ac543888c01d11d1877d7c1

Derived symbols were causing the symbol properties grid to assume that

Prevent derived symbols from being saved to a different library to

ADDED new option to set selection highlight thickness.
Also change selection shadow width constants to
make the selection thickness change less drastically
with the zoom level.
This change completely removes the LIB_ALIAS design pattern an replaces
it by allowing LIB_PART objects to inherit from other LIB_PART objects.
The initial implementation only allows for single inheritance and only
supports the mandatory fields in the derived part because that is all
that the current symbol library file format will support. Once the new
file format is implemented and saving to the old file format is deprecated,
more complex inheritance will be added. The LIB_ALIAS information saved
in the document files was move into the LIB_PART object. This change
impacts virtually every part of the schematic and symbol library editor
code so this commit message is woefully incomplete.
REMOVE: Removed the symbol aliases concept from the schematic and symbol
editors and the symbol viewer.
NEW: Replace the symbol alias concept with simple inheritance that allows
a library symbol to be derived from another library symbol.
It happens when the spice library model shown in dialog is a large file.
Looks like the wxTextCtrl used to displays the library content

Net names in eeschema that include '/' are escaped ('/' replaced by "{slash}")
Escaped netnames are only for internal use, and must be unescaped in spice netlist and dialogs.
