This is a special field, always existing, that cannot be handled like other fields.
Also avoid using translated names when initializing the field name.
Translated names can be used only in UI, not in internal data.

Shared schematics can have a root sheet instance when opened with the
schematic editor in stand alone mode. This would cause a crash when
opening the shared schematic in a project where it was shared because
the root instance was trying to be saved in the normal sheet instance
data which is not valid.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/13102
The crash was caused by an unhandled exception. The uncaught exception
caused a cacophony of null configuration setting pointers so guards were
added to prevent crashes should other exceptions occur that do not get
handled correctly.

... to netclass flags. They're now directive labels and the netclass
field isn't auto-added anymore. However, we *do* auto-add an intersheet
refs field, and that's required.
While we never allow the creation of mirrored text elements in the
schematic and symbol library editors, external generation of symbols may
cause the property to be set, which can then never be changed. This
leaves the property unset for all elements

This will make it possible to maintain sheet instance information when
copying and pasting from any sheet other that the root sheet of a
project.
Setting and getting sheet page numbers must now be performed using a
sheet path. This was done to ensure that the instance paths were not
getting changed unexpectedly from different code paths.
This fix makes some fundamental changes to the way symbols are rescued:
* The new symbol library file format is used when rescuing symbols defined
in the symbol library table.
* The original library nickname is appended to the symbol name rather than
the rescue library nickname when rescuing symbol defined in the symbol
library table.
* Escaping strings has been removed from legacy library rescues since the
legacy library file format never supported it.

This change reverts the storage of all symbol instance data in the root
schematic. This was done because it's not possible to reuse instance
data when importing from sub-sheets.
There has been a fundamental change in how sheet paths are store in the
instance data. The root schematic UUID is always used when saving the
instance data. To prevent file churn, the virtual root sheet UUID is set
to the root schematic UUID when loading the project. This provides a way
to determine the project that stored the instance data. All uses of paths
without root sheet have been expunged from the code.
The sheet instance data is still saved only in the root sheet for the
time being. New sheet instances will be automatically assigned an page
number based on the incremental virtual sheet page number. Sheet page
numbers will not be imported.
Added project name to instance data to improve the readability of the
schematic file format. It also creates an opportunity to remove orphaned
instance data by project name rather than cryptic UUIDs.

ID was not maintained or used other than to ensure unique fields.
Instead of saving, we assign the known IDs to specific field names and
sequentially create new IDs on load

This is mostly to output the aliases sorted (for ease of VCS integration),
but also because a btree will be faster than hashing on a small dataset.

CHANGED: Symbol chooser search now considers custom symbol fields
Visible columns can be controlled in database libraries.
In standard KiCad libraries, we show columns for all custom fields for now.
Customizable column visibility will be added in the future.

Since single-row queries are performed rapid-fire during certain actions like
stepping through the symbol browser, there is high value in caching them for
a small amount of time. The default cache parameters will keep results for
10 seconds, which errs on the side of getting fresh data from the database
on most user interactions.
Since EDA_TEXT is a base class, we can just force the child classes to pass the correct iu scaled size
ALLOW_BOLD_THICKNESS removed because it's a pre-custom font holdover
Sub-libraries allow a single-level hierarchy inside a symbol library.
This is useful for database libraries and for supporting other EDA library types where a
single file can contain multiple logical groupings of symbols.
Allows placing parts from an external database that reference symbols from another loaded library.
Includes:
- nanodbc wrapper
- database schematic library plugin
- basic tests

The commit bumps the schematic file format version in order to fix the
initial symbol default instance data to the first instance of each symbol.
It also sets the initial instance data to undefined in the SCH_SYMBOL
ctor so on the first schematic save, the default instance will be set
to the first instance of the symbol.
