Old PLOTTER::Text is not (yet) removed, but it use negative text size
to mirrored text, which is not really compatible with some plotters (especially PDF).
Using TEXT_ATTRIBUTES is much easy and much better,
so PLOTTER::PlotText() is added.
Note: "old" PLOTTER::Text() is not removed yet.
Also adds simulation model inference to Symbol Editor's Simulation Model
Editor, and adds write-back from both Simulation Model Editors to their
parent Symbol Fields Editor dialogs.

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.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/11946
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
Allows placing parts from an external database that reference symbols from another loaded library.
Includes:
- nanodbc wrapper
- database schematic library plugin
- basic tests
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/7436
Before they were 1/2 treated as flags and 1/2 treated as a mode enum.
The ERC flag relaxes constraints on data that is settable in the
schematic editor.

This one is primarily about pushing TEXT_ATTRIBUTES in to the GAL
API, but it also includes adding EDA_ANGLE signatures to some trig
routines to ease integration.
It is no longer acceptable to set a LIB_FIELD index to -1. This was
trashing the sorting on load cause all kinds of false field comparison
failures. There are now assertions when attempting to use -1 as a field
index.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/9811
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.
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.
