During the symbol library table implementation, the legal character
tests for the footprint library table were changed and the forward
slash '/' character became illegal. This change broke editing some
users footprint library tables that already had '/' in library table
nicknames. This change split the library nickname and library item
name illegal character tests.
Symbol/footprint library and entry have the same set of forbidden
characters with a single exception, space character. To accommodate for
this difference, LIB_ID validation and fix methods have been extended to
specify the LIB_ID type that is checked (schematic/board).
LIB_ID::HasIllegalChars() and LIB_ID::FixIllegalChars() had two different
sets of characters treated as invalid in LIB_IDs. The set has been
factored out to another function to avoid duplication.
Change the legacy schematic plugin to preserve illegal LIB_ID characters
when load schematics prior to version 4.
Check for illegal LIB_ID symbol names during project rescue. Rename and
rescue any symbols with illegal LIB_ID names.
Add static methods to LIB_ID object for testing for and fixing names
with illegal characters so there is uniform code for doing so.
Update the Eagle plugin symbol loader to fix symbol names using the new
LIB_ID fix illegal names method.

This forces the compiler class specific features rather than borrowing
from the base class's std::string. In some cases prior to this,
wxString( std::string ) was being called rather than UTF8::operator
wxString() leading to garbled wxStrings.
Added function UTF8::wx_str() which is of great convenience also.
Implicit conversions still work as before, and hopefully more reliably.
LIB_ID was changing the symbol name due to the parser dropping everything
past the first '/' character which is interpreted by LIB_ID as the item
version. Add flag to ignore this in LIB_ID::SetLibItemName() and add a
new ctor so the library nickname, item name, and revision can be set as
required to prevent the standard LIB_ID parsing.
Fix a few places where PART_LIBS functions FindLibraryAlias() and
FindLibPar() were translating wxString symbol names to LIB_IDs where the
LIB_ID parser was truncating the symbol name.
Rename FPID to LIB_ID as is now used as a generic library identifier and
is no longer specific to footprints.
Remove all mention of footprint from the new LIB_ID doxygen comments and
code.
Rename files fpid.h and fpid.cpp to lib_id.h and lib_id.cpp.
Rename fp_lib_table.keywords file to lib_table.keywords and adjust CMake
build dependencies accordingly.
Update all source files effected by the code and file name changes.
Update .gitignore for file name changes.
