Small icons for dialog browse, refresh, and row operations.
Icons in B&W so they don't over-emphasize with respect to other
controls in the dialog.
Layout cleanup for consistency. Removal of the blank space to
left of the fields list in the Global Fields Editor, and addition
of column-sizing-to-list-width.
More even spacing for buttons in html report panel.
Honor platform conventions for action button order and layout.
Move netlist importer to update-pcb-from-schematic algorithm
(display messages and then update instead of "dry run" checkbox)
(cherry picked from commit b21e19d)
When reading netlist or updating board from schematic, if the
changes leave a zone with a net with no pads then change the
zone's net to the new net of one of it's connections.
Also improves update-board-from-schematic's dry run reporting
to include zone nets and single-pad nets.
