This allows the workflow:
1) Edit symbol in schematic
2) Save As to original library
Also allows the user to quickly overwrite a symbol they don't want,
either by importing over the existing symbol or creating a new one.
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.
CHANGED: When creating a new library, the usual intention is to add a
new symbol to it. Without this, the "No symbol library selected."
message will appear if the user attempts to add a new symbol without
manually selecting their new library.
It's tempting to say that we don't need to exclude filename chars
from symbols, but we might regret that decision down the road. Better
to just escape them.

wxString::Format is redundant in a wxLogXXX call.
Error messages should generally be translatable.
Error messages should use generally consistent sentence forms.
MacOS wxWidgets implementation of wxPrintf/Format suffers from some
issues when mixing string types. We avoid this by manually formatting
the string ourselves.

This was leaking windows headers and partial wx headers to 1084 compilation units......
This also means math/util.h is leaking to 1084 compilation units which seems a bit high too.
Differentiates better between the EDA_ITEM IsModified(), referring to
items themselves changing and the EDA_SCREEN IsContentModified(),
referring to whether we have made any unsaved changes.
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
1) Don't reset value when name changes
2) Don't fire events when initialising dialog
3) Make sure when symbol is saved back to schematic that only current
instance has its ref updated, but that all instances have their other
fields updated.
4) When saving symbol back to board always use the fields from the
editor and not the (alias-specific) ones from the library.

After commit 9535153f9e there were no more IDs inside the legacy ID
system. Therefore the entire system for dispatching and looking up
the legacy ideas and handling those events can now be removed and
the tool dispatcher simplified (it no longer needs to know about
the ACTIONS class).
The ACTION_MENU constructor now takes the tool as an argument,
so the call to SetTool() immediately following it can be removed
and the tool just passed into the constructor.
Saying "Import/Export" on the labels when the submenu has "Import"
or "Export" in it is redundant.
Note that we can't just update the action text with the new name,
because that is used in the hotkey list and would become too confusing
without the "Import"/"Export" text.
Bitmaps are now identified by an enum class instead of by pointers.
Bitmap loading and caching is now handled by a class in common, and
we no longer compile most bitmaps into the binary, so there is no
longer a bitmaps static library.
Instead, bitmaps are archived to a .tar.gz file which is installed
in ${KICAD_DATA}/resources/images.tar.gz
The source PNGs are checked in to Git as the original CPP files were,
so that people can build without the required dependencies to convert
SVGs to PNGs.
Initial support is also added for dark theme icons, although this
is not yet exposed in the GUI.
Stubs are present for multi-resolution image resources, but this is
not fully-baked yet and could use some refinement.
We don't actually allow the user to change this at present, so one
could argue that we should remove it from what is saved out of the
config. But this is a smaller, safer change.

Some differences are due to difference between libraries being files
in symbol editor and directories in footprint editor, but this unifies
most of the rest.
It also dispenses with the save-to-library vs save-to-document distinction
in the GUI because it makes for too much variability in the GUI, was
implemented differently between the two editors, and isn't needed as much
anymore now that we have the highly visible infobar.
There was also an issue that the save-to-board icon occupies the same
location and has the same size/shape/colours as the Board Setup icon in
PCBNew.

ADDED: Radio button controls to symbol library editor save as file dialog
to allow the user to choose the appropriate symbol library table changes
to be made after the library is saved.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4911
Prior to this change the "Save As.." command would take a different action
based on the state of the editor which could be confusing. There are now
separate commands for saving the currently selected library or symbol.
CHANGED: The implicit save as menu entry which would save the currently
selected library if no symbol was selected or the current symbol to a
different library. There are now separate save as commands for libraries
and symbols to make it obvious what is being saved.
1) Zero out selection in tree when canvas captures focus so that
save/save as actions will go to canvas, not tree item.
2) Make save do a save to schematic when the canvas symbol is from
the schematic.
3) Copy fields when doing a save to schematic (setting the lib part
doesn't update them on its own).
4) Remove no-longer-necessary calls to update schematic after
saving symbols (the schematic symbols are no longer hot-linked).

In theory, the WM should now choose the closest size icon for its
purpose, making it easier to distinguish in space-constrained settings

The accelerator strings really shouldn't be part of the translation,
and some translations have cause the accelerator keys to be incorrectly
handled. It is simpler to make it separate and just join them to the
translated string.
Make all accelerator modifiers use lowercased Ctrl instead of CTRL
to be the same as the other modifiers.
