Jon Evans e294fe2074 ADDED: Dynamic field columns in symbol chooser
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.

Jon Evans ae879c8f02 DbLib: Add single-row query cache
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.

Jon Evans 49354e52a8 Add support for sub-libraries concept
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.
