Field Editor dialog calls LIB_EDIT::SetFields() that deletes the old
LIB_FIELD objects and creates new ones. If any of the old LIB_FIELD
objects had been selected before invoking the dialog, then one of the
update UI event handlers will crash trying to access the object.
This is due to the fact the same ID was used for menuitems in menubar,
and tools in toobars.
Especially, some items were not compatible due to different attributes.
Windows does not accept the same ID for 2 items inside the same frame.
It creates issues (items not shown, Asserts, ...)
Renaming a subsheet but keeping the filename should not present a
warning to the user. The was triggered due to comparing a
fully-qualified filename to a relative filename.

Eagle support net labels that are naming wires not directly connected to
the labels. In KiCad it is not possible, therefore such detached net
labels need to be moved, so they touch the corresponding wire.
The initial algorithm did not take into account that a moved net label
might be placed on a wire crossing, effectively shorting two nets. This
commit improves the placement algorithm by avoiding the wire crossing
points when placing a label.

While we already cache the loaded footprint files, parsing said files
into the list is also time-intensive. Since the FOOTPRINT_LIST is
already hash-stamped against the current timestamps of the files that
make up the list, sharing a single copy of the list is quite
straight-forward.
With hash character starting the reference value, schematic components
are considered as virtual and therefore netlist updater do not warn about
an unsigned footprint anymore. This approach is useful to handle logos,
frames or other virtual Eagle components.

ngSpice frequently ends up a simulation with an error:
"Error: ngspice.dll cannot recover and awaits to be detached"
The only way forward is to reload the shared library and
reinitialize ngSpice.

Schematic components have illegal characters replaced during load,
leading to broken component-symbol links. To avoid this, library symbols
should have their names fixed in the same way.

Duplicate is handled like move/drag but shouldn't mark the original
items as moving. This prevents a redraw from drawing the original
items.

The backup code was designed for a project with all of the schematics
in the project folder which is not always the case. Fix the schematic
backup to keep the schematic folder structure in tact during backups.

Keep any Eeschema color except background a fraction off of true white
to ensure that BW printing shows the lines as black. Only the
background is allowed to be white in an Eeschema printout.

For some reason, when calling python and giving a full filename script, the last separator in the filename
must be '/', not '\'.
Otherwise the import command inside the script does not find files to import in the same folder as the script.
We cannot replace blindly '\' to '/' in command line because it does not work for file on a server (name starting by \\server_name\).
So the fix is just replacing one '\' in python script full filename.
This is not perfect, but at least it works for newly created plugin commands.
Also adds indicators in layers palette for feedback.
Also generates sized images for all indicators instead of using
scaled bitmaps (which didn't look great).
Also fixes a completely unrelated typo in a UI string.
Includes some dialog changes to go with the menu update.
Includes promoting the Pcbnew graphics mode back to main menu.
Includes renaming Graphics modes to Toolsets.
Currently, if a old label already containing a '/' (or a space) is edited, it is accepted,
but no new not allowed char can be added to the label.
(Previously, a sheet pin label was not filtered)
This also makes the dialog modeless so that one switch between
sheets while annotating to choose the base numbers for each
sheet (assuming they don't like the base number we pick because
of the order of the sheets).

Also fixes:
- forcing the annotation scope to "full schematic" when run
as a prerequisite to Generate Netlist.
- a long-standing bug where displaying extra items in a dialog
would mess up the height of the HTML_REPORT_PANEL (becasue
we were setting the html window's height rather than its
parent flexgrid.
- initializing the annotation radio buttons to safe values
(full schematic and keep existing)
