When the user asks to mirror a symbol is is frequently to get the
reference/value on the other side of the symbol for placement purposes.
Autoplacing the fields here keeps the text where they were initially
which can be frustating to work around.
This commit treats the mirror command as a user request to change where
the fields are
Previous use of instance was as an "override" of the default value.
This has changed to be used as the primary storage location for all
values. This means that we cannot clear the instance data when setting
a new value for all instances, instead we have to change the instance
data and the default value is superfluous

EE_INSPECTION_TOOL::UpdateMessagePanel was called by EVENTS::SelectedEvent
But This event after commit calls E_INSPECTION_TOOL::CrossProbe(),
and no longer UpdateMessagePanel.
So CrossProbe() now calls UpdateMessagePanel.
Fixes#11447https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/11447
Pin names like "+V" were incorrectly parsed as doubles leading to broken
comparisons. These caused heap overflows when sorting pin tables
This corrects the comparison so that numeric sorts are only performed
when there is an actual number in the symbol segment. Also adds unit
tests for common error cases
Our menu bar code is interestingly complex. But we were throwing away newly made menu items to the void in the cases of constructed on the fly submenus
CHANGED: The text variable ${SHEETNAME} now always represents the name of the
sheet when used anywhere in the schematic editor, including the title block
ADDED: A new text variable ${SHEETPATH} which is replaced with the path to the
current sheet - e.g. "/Sheet 1/Sheet 2".
To ensure backward compatibility, the default drawing sheet now uses
${SHEETPATH}. Custom drawing sheets will need to be manually edited.
Prior to fixing the schematic file change churn do to instance data
changing to the last selected sheet instance, the symbol instance data
was set rather than empty. This change allows for users to set the
default instance data which is used for every new instance of the
schematic.
ADDED: Default schematic symbol instance data (unit and reference, value,
and footprint fields) can be set to be used as the default settings
for all new instances of the schematic.

This also fixes a failure to use the correct effective width for
shapes (which might, for instance, inherit their widths from schematic
defaults, netclasses, etc.).

Better to have both the single-pin error message and the non-driven
error message when an input pin is not connected than miss error

Destructor of SIM_PLOT_FRAME calls sim->Attach( nullptr ) in order to destroy
circuit model (former netlist exporter). If this is skipped, eeschema crashes
when program is closed. nullptr is a valid parameter for Attach()
- fix irrelevant warning message box when tuners moved
too quickly and simulation was slow
- fix for rerun simulation when tuning and result tab was changed
SIMULATOR has now an Attach() method, which should be called
with proper SIMULATION_MODEL that should be simulated, before calling Run()
Concrete class of SIMULATION_MODEL for ngspice is NGSPICE_CIRCUIT_MODEL,
renamed from NETLIST_EXPORTER_PSPICE_SIM. DIALOG_SIM_SETTINGS relies
on above mentioned object, so it was added as an argument of the constructor.
Now that we are dealing with individual connection elements that do not
update their connected elements as well, we can thread the update, just
being careful to guard any remaining updates (bus_enty/busLine) that
need reciprocal updating

Normally, you will gain by resursing a nested loop only over the
pairs that are not already handled. In this case, however, you lose
time because you step outside of the cache by adding the reciprocal test
at each step.
Instead, we process one element at a time, keeping it cached and loop
over all other elements to add to the connection. This saves us about
75% of the time for larger loops (e.g. stacked power pins on a large
BGA)

Fixes:
* Various special cases around junctions on pins and dragging.
* Some rotations of endpoints resulting in a 45 degree rotate.
* Some cases where it was possible to get a line with neither
endpoint selected, and also substractive unselecting only one of two
selected endpoints unselecting both.
* Use line midpoint for sorting. Start and endpoints aren't
consistent in the order they appear on the X or Y axis. So,
we need to use the midpoint for our position for consistent
sorting when dragging groups of parallel lines where some
have the start and end reversed.
Other:
* Rename TEMP_SELECTED TO SELECTED_BY_DRAG. This is the actual meaning
of the flag, and should reduce confusion as
to when it should be used.
* Move usage of TEMP_SELECTED as an algorithmic mark to CANDIDATE
instead.
* Fix mistaken clearing of START_POINT and ENDPOINT.
* Move endpoint setting and clearing out of narrowSelection, and into
selectPoint and selectMultiple.
* Don't show dangling end warnings on new lines
In symbols, a polyline descr is already a true polyline / polygon descr.
In schematic, a polyline descr was restricted to only 2 points (a line).
A true polyline / polygon descr is now allowed in schematic that support already
polygons.
For compatibility reason, a 2 points polygon (SCH_SHAPE) is converted to a SCH_LINE.
MapAngles() will modify parameters and C++ does not guarantee LTR
evaluation, so we need to separate the calls into the proper order
before comparing the returns

Do not use the symbol field string to populate the value and footprint
grid cells. The field strings may be empty because the symbol has not
been instantiated yet by entering a sheet. This fix makes an incorrect
assumption that the first instance value and footprint data in the symbol
is the same for all instances.
Note: this fix is incomplete because the value and footprint fields are
can now be different between sheet instances. The entire field
table editor design will need to be rethought because the current
grouping doesn't allow different value and footprint instance
changes.

Previously, coordinates were clamped to +- 60 inches. It makes no sense to
clamp them at plotter level: max cooed depends on the editor (schematic/board...)

SPICE simulator can be called also during IBIS model determination,

Needed to find bottlenecks in fns, so break out individual sections of
the massive function for easier understanding.
buildItemSubgraphs (one section of the previous function) would build
millions of connections that were never used as stacked pins created X!
connections. Also tested using sets instead of lists and keeping unique
lists to avoid flagging but none of these were as performant as using
flags to remember which items had already been processed.

The previous solution cleared all of the fields and force the unit setting
to unit one which would have less than desirable effects when reusing a
schematic in another project. This solution forces all of the instance
settings to the first sheet instance of the current project to prevent file
change churn when changing shared sheets in the current project.
This will not prevent shared schematic file changes when the first sheet
instance data differs between projects.
Also make sure that value field is updated from name changes when the
symbol is a power symbol (even if it's from the schematic instead of
the library).

Arcs can be altered by the process of changing from on-disk
representation to in-memory representation. Saving back to disk without
modifying the arc should not modify the calculated values.
This stores a copy of the on-disk representation that is only used to
save back to disk in the event that the arc is not modified during
editing.

Center rotation will often misalign lines to the grid, which is bad

Also makes sure the progress dialog is closed when we're done reading
symbols (it used to stay up for much of the symbol editor initialization).
Also makes sure that any cancel in the preLoad step is honoured in the
sync step. (The preload is done because it is multi-threaded and therefore
faster than the single-threaded sync.)
Also makes sure that individual threads pay attention to the cancellation,
not just the GUI thread.

KiCad has stricter requirements for what consititutes an annotated
symbol. This checks for and corrects annotations that begin with '#',
do not begin with a non-numeric character or do not end with a number
The comment regarding bitmaps was true for one more month in 2018, but
hasn't been true for the last 3 years, and clearing the cache is a huge
performance hit.
If a wire intersects more than 2 pins from the same symbol, we don't
trim connections. If the wire intersects exactly two pins from a single
symbol, we remove the wire between the pins.
We avoided doing this before because we didn't have a good metric for
trimming vs. not. But the per-symbol calculation feels like the least
surprising option.
