Always use full sheet paths when storing sheet instances. Partial sheet
paths cannot be full resolved resulting in lost page numbers when renaming
sheet file name.
Fixes#9782
Remove duplicate instance data saved in both root SCH_SCREEN and SCH_SHEET
objects that was causing them to be out of sync. All sheet instance data
is stored in the SCH_SHEET object itself and rebuilt on the fly so it is
always current.
Remove Get/SetPageNumber from SCH_SHEET_PATH object so it doesn't obfuscate
where the actual sheet page number information exists.

They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
We moved it earlier because AddItemToScreenAndUndoList() was clearing
it, but it needs to be set for AddItemToScreenAndUndoList() too.

Use justification instead of orientation relative to the anchor point when
describing text direction and alignment. This seems to be the preferred
method by most users so hopefully this will eliminate some confusion.
Fix a bug in the s-expression schematic parser that failed to take into
account how graphical text alignment is defined for graphic text objects
compared to label text objects.

wx/wx.h includes all wxWidgets .h files, and sometimes creates collision
names in #define between kicad and windows headers
Moreover, blindly including a lot of useless files is compil time consuming
When activate the new symbol placement, the mouse cursor is outside the canvas.
Therefore a autopan was started and not so easy to stop.
Now the mouse cursor (and the graphic cursor) are moved to a better location inside the canvas.

1) Cloning the component fails to select all its pins.
2) Something about the layer compositing causes light selection shadows
to get even lighter. The default pretty much disappears.

1) Don't factor in pin names when computing symbol body boundingbox.
2) Grid-snap only in the axis corresponding to the layout side.
3) We only need interline spacing *between* lines, not for each line.
4) Also cleans up the unit checking logic as the unit can't be more
than 0 unless it's a multi-unit symbol.

The move tool can stack on others, so when we re-enter the previous tool
this caused another immediate action. We flag re-entry in the tool
stack to check for this and avoid unexpected tool starts
When a user clicks on the "Add Component", "Add Power" or "Add Footprint"
icon, they want to add the item. Requiring an extra click on the screen
before selecting the component/footprint is not needed.
Original architecture was to pass KICAD_T in to specify what kind of
object you wanted. That didn't work well with things like cursor
shape so it was moved to setting booleans based on the ACTION. When
I cleared out the old KICAD_T stuff I missed one case where it was
still used. That is now corrected as well.

1) Generalize SCH_ITEM owners (SCH_COMPONENT, SCH_SHEET, and now
SCH_GLOBALLABEL)
2) Generalize hypertext items
3) Use SCH_FIELD autoplace infrastructure for placing intersheet
references
4) Use textVar infrastructure for buildin intersheet references.
As an important side-effect this also fixes the undo issues with
intersheet refs.
It was causing problems with surprising behaviour and issues with
allowing spaces in existing labels. We'll work on something better
for 7.0....

You can now enable and disable snap to grid when drawing/editing across
all apps. You can also tie snap to grid to the visibility of the grid
to allow rapid enable/disable via grid display.
Set up a new lineage for SCH_ITEMS to get back to the SCHEMATIC
they live on: Items will all be parented to the SCH_SCREEN that
they are added to, and each SCH_SCREEN will point back to the
SCHEMATIC that it is part of. Note that this hierarchy is not
the same as the actual schematic hierarchy, which continues to
be managed through SCH_SHEETs and SCH_SHEET_PATHS.
This is a very large and potentially disruptive change so this will be an
unusually long and detailed commit message.
The new file formats are now the default in both the schematic and symbol
library editors. Existing symbol libraries will be saved in their current
format until new features are added to library symbols. Once this happens,
both the legacy schematic and symbol file formats will be no longer be
savable and existing libraries will have to be converted. Saving to the
legacy file formats is still available for round robin testing and should
not be used for normal editing.
When loading the legacy schematic file, it is imperative that the schematic
library symbols are rescued and/or remapped to valid library identifiers.
Otherwise, there will be no way to link to the original library symbol and
the user will be required manually set the library identifier. The cached
symbol will be saved in the schematic file so the last library symbol in
the cache will still be used but there will be no way to update it from the
original library.
The next save after loading a legacy schematic file will be converted to
the s-expression file format. Schematics with hierarchical sheets will
automatically have all sheet file name extensions changed to .kicad_sym
and saved to the new format as well.
Appending schematics requires that the schematic to append has already been
converted to the new file format. This is required to ensure that library
symbols are guaranteed to be valid for the appended schematic.
The schematic symbol library symbol link resolution has been moved out of
the SCH_COMPONENT object and move into the SCH_SCREEN object that owns the
symbol. This was done to ensure that there is a single place where the
library symbol links get resolved rather than the dozen or so different
code paths that previously existed. It also removes the necessity of the
SCH_COMPONENT object of requiring any knowledge of the symbol library table
and/or the cache library.
When opening an s-expression schematic, the legacy cache library is not
loaded so any library symbols not rescued cannot be loaded. Broken library
symbol links will have to be manually resolved by adding the cache library
to the symbol library table and changing the links in the schematic symbol.
Now that the library symbols are embedded in the schematic file, the
SCH_SCREEN object maintains the list of library symbols for the schematic
automatically. No external manipulation of this library cache should ever
occur.
ADDED: S-expression schematic and symbol library file formats.
