Also rewrites the PCBNew Find dialog to make use of the above, including:
1) searching in user-defined footprint fields
2) searching in pcb text
3) a history list in the search popup
4) case sensitive searching
5) word sensitive searching
6) the ability to turn wildcard searching on/off
7) better placement of the result when the dialog obscures part of the
window

The problem is that wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK doesn’t do the key translation
properly. wxEVT_CHAR does, but we only get to that if we skip the
event at the end of the tool’s event processing loop, which most tools
don’t do. (Selection tools, point editors, pickers, and a couple of
others do skip, which is probably why this didn’t get reported earlier.)
I played around with a couple of ways to fix wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK. Most of
them don’t work, and the few egregious hacks I tried weren't cross-
platform.
So I’m changing it so that most tools now skip at the end of their
event loops. I left out a couple that I felt were high risk (length
tuning, for instance). But there’s still enough risk that I’m 100%
sure it will break something, I just haven’t a clue what.

The point editor expects rectangles with a height and width > 0.
Previously, this constraint did not exist,
so some LIB_RECTANGLE graphic items can create issues when trying to move a corner.
Now, the LIB_RECTANGLE graphic item is normalized before trying to move a corner.
This method was using a case insensitive comparison to find the pad matching aPadName.
But in netlist we are using case sensitive comparisons to attribute a net to a pad.
So if in the netlist there is a pad name that does not match any footprint pad name using case sensitive comparison but if it matches some pads using case insensitive comparison, the net is not set, but the test to detect non existing pads fails.
Pads not on copper layers now do not have a netname, and are no longer taken in account in connectivity.
Especially it avoid creating useless rats-nests for these pads.
This fixes two display issues in the project template selector. The
first captured HTML tags in the template title display and the second
prevented more than one line for showing (at least on GTK) in the
preview. This prevented disambiguation between the various templates.
(cherry picked from commit 24b032ce5b)
This fixes the last suffix that was missed by 168fa09f5. The schematic
backup files should have the suffix .sch-bak to distinguish from
.kicad_pcb-bak or other backups.
(cherry picked from commit b6fe4ff637)
Setting stub width to a ridiculous large value (for instance 100 times the pad size) creates strange and broken shapes,
and obviously stubs cannot be built.
Ensure also the thermal shape is inside the zone boundary (because the algo adds areas this was previously possible)

- make it wxWidgets 3.1 compatible.
- internationalize.
- fix minor wxwidgets alert.
- remove settings for fg/bg color: the result is unpredictable:
was black texts on black background on my computer.
Previously, for instance after modifying preferences or language,
they were rebuilt but the tools state was not set due to a missing call to SyncToolbars() after rebuilding.
Do not add cache library from another project to old library list. This
is wrong and can cause all kinds of symbol library linking issues. It's
better to force the user to fix broken symbol library links than the false
security of using multiple cache libraries.
Use correct paths when appending schematic outside of the current project
path when hierarchical sheets are appended. If the path can be relative,
give the user the option to use either relative or absolute paths.
Do not change symbol library names in schematics appended from a source
outside the current project. This will almost ensure the symbol library
links will be broken in the source project.
When the appended schematic is from another project, attempt to check all
of the possible combinations of symbol library table importing that could
cause broken symbol library links and give the user the option of canceling
the append operation or live with the possibility that there may be broken
symbol library links.
When the append schematic is in the current project path but not part of
the schematic, check to see if there are any library nicknames that do
no exist in the project symbol library table and give the user a chance
to cancel the append process.
