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.

This makes using Scrollbars more easy to use, especially for "small" page sizes like A or B.
Note also the working/drawing area size is bigger than the page size (3 times)
This parameter defines the working area (full page) size.
The fix is not perfect, because it does not take in account the page size.
However it is similar to the "old" initialization, before Eeschema GAL.
In Eeschema, a reasonable boundary size is used.
1) when duplicating don’t keep original hidden until end of drag
2) reset selectionArea when showing it so it doesn’t flash in its previous location
3) center a pasted block on the cursor
4) don’t draw the source selectionArea when pasting a block
5) implement selection-style highlighting for contents of blocks
6) add pasted items to view so they don’t disappear when the block is placed

Eeschema (where only the parent component is in the view) uses
draw order.
LibEdit (where the individual items are in the view) uses the
viewPriority setting.
