* Rename redundant function PART_LIB::GetEntry() to PART_LIB::GetAlias() which
is more descriptive and move the GetAlias() function which was nothing more
than a call to GetEntry().
* move not shared files (sch_item_struct.*, sch_base_frame.h) to eeschema;
* move wxEeschemaStruct.h to eeschema and rename it schframe.h to be consistent with the other corresponding file name schframe.cpp;
* remove few not needed #include
Schematic component properties dialog: add 2 helper buttons to manage the chip name (name of the corresponding part in lib)
- a browse button to chose an other chip name
- a test button, to know if the part exists. If not existing, list the parts found when searching using a case insensitive comparison.
However to be compatible with old versions of Eeschema, when a search in library fails, a case insensitive search is made.
Therefore, this version should be compatible with sch files created by previous Eeschema versions compiled with KICAD_KEEPCASE = OFF
*) When kicad.exe closes a project, close any open KIFACEs so that they cannot
get disassociated from their true PROJECT.
*) Allow loading eeschema library editor from kicad.exe
*) Allow loading pcbnew library editor from kicad.exe
*) Rename LIB_COMPONENT to LIB_PART.
*) Add class PART_LIBS, and PART_LIB.
*) Make PART_LIBS non-global, i.e. PROJECT specific.
*) Implement "data on demand" for PART_LIBS
*) Implement "data on demand" for schematic SEARCH_STACK.
*) Use RSTRINGs to retain eeschema editor's notion of last library and part being edited.
*) Get rid of library search on every SCH_COMPONENT::Draw() call, instead use
a weak pointer.
*) Remove all chdir() calls so projects don't need to be CWD.
*) Romove APPEND support from OpenProjectFiles().
*) Make OpenProjectFiles() robust, even for creating new projects.
*) Load EESCHEMA colors in the KIWAY::OnKiwayStart() rather in window open,
and save them in the .eeschema config file, not in the project file.
*) Fix bug with wxDir() while accessing protected dirs in kicad.exe
*) Consolidate template copying into PROJECT class, not in kicad.exe source.
*) Generally untangle eeschema, making its libraries not global but rather
held in the PROJECT.
* Move the component library save file creation and write error dialogs
into the appropriate frame object.
* Change the save component library and document definitions take an
OUTPUTFORMATTER object instead of a file name.
* Change the component alias save document definition function to take
an OUTPUTFORMATTER object instead of a file handle.
* Move the hierarchical label connected test into the NETLIST_OBJECT class.
* ERC pin type strings can now be translated.
* Remove unused EDA_DRAW_PANEL attribute from all ERC test functions.
* Add get marker count method to SCH_SCREENS object.
* Redundant header removal.
* Lots of coding style policy fixes.
* Complete comment translation for all EESchema source files.
* Complete comment translation for all 3D viewer source files.
* Rename class class_hierarchical_PIN_sheet to SCH_SHEET_PIN.
* Rename class DrawSheetStruct to SCH_SHEET.
* Tool tip capitalization fixes.
* Uncrustify and spell check comments and strings in all modified source
files.
* Replace all known instances of (const wxChar*) casts to GetChars() for
wxWidgets 2.9 compatibility.
* Cleaned up get component dialog so last part gets saved on wild card
selections.
* Remove redundant schematic component drawing code.
* Added SCH_COMPONENT constructor to create new component from library
component object.
* Add message panel helpers to WinEDA_DrawFrame and update old message
panel access code.
* Using library viewer to add component to schematic now respects unit
and body style selection.
* Component library objects renamed for improved readability.
* Fields now move when selected in library editor.
* Add copy constructor to all library draw and library component objects.
* Added copy constructor to EDA_BaseStruct.
* Delete base screen in WinEDA_DrawFrame destructor to prevent potential memory leak.
* Fixed memory access bug when replacing and adding a component to library.
* Moved library component block manipulation code into component object.
* Removed all of the global variables used by the library editor main window object.
* The usual code cleaning and refactoring.
* Create static component library methods to manage library list.
* Rename component library, component, and alias objects to more readable name.
* Use pointer to component instead of root name to prevent redundant library searches.
* Add append message helper to message panel that calculates string length.
* Initial ground work for merging library and library document files.
* Improved component library file load error checking.
* Minor component library editor improvements.
Moved all library entry manipulation code scattered throughout EESchema into
the component library object itself. Adding, removing, and searching is now
handled by the library object. This is the precursor to replacing the current
priority queue code.

* commiting my changes to allow multiple instances of a given schematic file within
a hierarchy:
** internally, m_currentScreen has been replaced with m_currentSheet,
which is a list or 'path' of screens. The path of screens is used to
generate
a series of timestamps, which is converted to flat component reference via
a look-up
table in the schematic files.
** this means that m_currentScreen is no longer used -- use GetScreen().
** GetScreen is virtual, as some of the dialogs keep around a WinEDA_BaseScreen
pointer.
** all sub-sheets in a given schematic must have different names to generate a
meaningful netlist.
