Some differences are due to difference between libraries being files
in symbol editor and directories in footprint editor, but this unifies
most of the rest.
It also dispenses with the save-to-library vs save-to-document distinction
in the GUI because it makes for too much variability in the GUI, was
implemented differently between the two editors, and isn't needed as much
anymore now that we have the highly visible infobar.
There was also an issue that the save-to-board icon occupies the same
location and has the same size/shape/colours as the Board Setup icon in
PCBNew.

CHANGED footprint positions files -> component placement files.
Not all footprints get placed, so component is a more neutral word.
Use of "placement" instead of "positions" removes the double-plural
that makes footprint positions files such a mouth-full.

Don't use the same "post_*" icon in the treeview. The badge gives an
action that doesn't apply in the treeview.
Also renames different file blobs to the "file_*" prefix.
* Make the ruler able to switch to mils after creation
* Cleanup an unused flag in Pcbnew dimensions
* Move unit changed notification into EDA_DRAW_FRAME so more
frames to use it.
* Allow switching units when GerbView ruler tool is active
Also simplifies groups so that other areas of code that have to know
about them at least don't have to know as much. One of the simplifications
is to not worry so much about empty groups until save time; others are in
the access logic to parent groups.
Also simplifies user model slightly by removing Merge and Flatten
(which are just ungroup/group and ungroup/ungroup/.../group).
Also allows multiple groups to have the same name. This is useful when
using groups for a classification system.

ADDED memberOf() function for DRC rule expressions.
Also fixes a bug in several of the pickers where the event wasn't
being correctly passed.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5647
These objects can now be used in advanced DRC rules and
not just for keeping things out. Also remove the restriction
that at least one of the "basic" keepout rules must be set,
so that these areas can be used for more advanced rules.
