When editing or viewing library symbols, the files are watched for
underlying changes. If any occur, the user is either prompted to reload
(if reloading would overwrite their current edits) or the file is
silently updated to the current version on disk.
This also sets a custom assertion handler to avoid unneeded crashes when
recieving invalid SAMBA packets and turns off assertions entirely when
running in release (non-debug) mode
We default to KICAD_SEXPR format. In this case, if the library doesn't
have the .pretty extension, the full directory name including a '.' is
the correct nickname

Also cleans up the dialog a bit.
Also changes the workings of NormalizePath to return the input if
it couldn't be shortened which saves open coding that behaviour in
all its callers.

The default is usually wrong and presenting the basic footprint
information when creating an empty footprint allows the user to
establish their preference before mistakes occur.

Checks to see if the footprint attribute matches the type of pads
contained in the footprint. Can prevent issues during fabrication if
users forget to adjust them during creation.

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.
Differentiates better between the EDA_ITEM IsModified(), referring to
items themselves changing and the EDA_SCREEN IsContentModified(),
referring to whether we have made any unsaved changes.
Some differences are due to difference between libraries being files
in symbol editor and directories in footprint editor, but this unifies
most of the rest.
It also dispenses with the save-to-library vs save-to-document distinction
in the GUI because it makes for too much variability in the GUI, was
implemented differently between the two editors, and isn't needed as much
anymore now that we have the highly visible infobar.
There was also an issue that the save-to-board icon occupies the same
location and has the same size/shape/colours as the Board Setup icon in
PCBNew.

One way to do this would have been to keep the Uuids in the editor
copy. However, this opens us up to errors if we forget a Save As or
export path and end up writing the Uuids out somewhere else.
In the end, it felt safer to store a map of the original Uuids and
restore them if we happen to save the editor footprint back to the
board.
