Also improves the SNR and consistency of the menu item text. For
instance, a position is rarely useful, while relative sizes can be.
Also removes some unnecessary repitition, such as "Graphic Rectangle"
when "Rectangle" communicates the necessary information.
It looks good, but non-mandatory fields have an ID of -1, so it
doesn't actually work. Some places got around this by converting
the ID to unsigned, but this just hides the real issue from
unsuspecting coders.

CHANGES: Symbol library file format has been converted to s-expressions.
Add support code for picking apart symbols at some future junction that
will allow full inheritance conversion of existing symbol libraries. For
now, symbols arranged by unit and body style numbers are nested for round
robin testing of symbol libraries once the parser is complete.
When searching for fields, the code was sometimes comparing translated and not translated names.
This is an issue for mandatory fields, in non English languages.
Translated field names should be used only in messages.
Add also a comment in common.cpp about using wxLocale instead of setlocale.
DIALOG_UPDATE_FIELDS has issues in non English languages, due to its design.
The fix for mandatory fields is only a partial fix that avoid major issues.
Note that since the markup might exist for other reasons, it has
to be turned on with a preference setting. (It goes through a set
of bitflags so the same architecture can be used for other markup
structures that we might want to support in the future.)
Note also that this is more about engineering nomenclature than
visual formatting. In that respect it's more similar to overbar
than italic or bold.
... and GetMsgPanelInfo.
Step 4 in the g_UserUnit eradication effort.
Also removes a couple of conversion routines that were close
enough to extinction.
(cherry picked from commit c75da51)
Be consistent with order, formatting, etc.
Remove debug stuff such as zone timestamp and net code.
Clean up misleading pad messages.
(cherry picked from commit 2132109)
Schematic components have illegal characters replaced during load,
leading to broken component-symbol links. To avoid this, library symbols
should have their names fixed in the same way.

1) Edit Symbol gets similar fix as Place Symbol
2) progress dialog updating reduced to once every 50ms
3) SearchText gets lazy normalization
4) TypeNames get lazy translation
5) default fieldNames get translated a single time per language change
These fixes reduce first-load-time of both Edit Symbol and Place Symbol
by about 2/3, and second-load-time of Edit Symbol to near-instantaneous.
This is the last of the object save/load code that was not moved into
the SCH_LEGACY_PLUGIN object. All schematic and library I/O is now
performed in the SCH_LEGACY_PLUGIN object and as been removed from the
schematic and library objects.
The old single symbol file format has been replaced with the normal
symbol library file format since there was no difference between them
except the SYMBOL token. The SYMBOL token was no longer being read
since the introduction of the SCH_LEGACY_PLUGIN symbol library loader.
Update the Doxygen comments in all of the modified files.
