When the filename is not absolute, the page layout file is now searched first in project folder, and then in kicad template folder, if not found in project.
Fix issue when using a page layout file in project folder: eeschema and Pcbnew did not use it, unless using an absolute path.
Now, if the file path is nor absolute, it is seen as relative to the project (which is the expected behavior)
fp lib wizard: when pcbnew id compiled with USE_GITHUB_PLUGIN=OFF, the github plugin option is no more accessible (and the web viewer no more used).
Page layout editor: Add bitmap items to the page layout existing items.
Now a bitmap image can be added to a page layout description. Currently the bitmap is expected having a 300 ppi definition.
Note: not all plotters can plot a bitmap, and in this case the bounding box is plotted instead of the bitmap
Remove KICAD_GOST option because it is now useless: the 2 GOST options are now selectable at run time and are:
* specific page layouts (now user definable, and the GOST page layouts are available in template folder)
* notation for multiple parts per package (made in eeschema, preference menu)
Pcbnew: footprint wizard dialogs: minor fixes, and fixes a not working parameters dialog under Windows, due to an incorrect Printf format.
remove scripts/packagesrc.sh, fully outdated (still refers svn repo) and not commented.
Eeschema, dialog netlist: fix a bug when removing a plugin panel, when is is not the last.
dialog netlist:Add a predefined command string for python scripts, when creating a new netlist plugin entry.
* Add footprint library table loading to footprint editor.
* Overload FOOTPRINT_INFO::ReadFootprintFiles() to read footprints from the
footprint library tables.
* Fix a bug in FP_LIB_TABLE::IsEmpty() when the table has a fallback table.
* Add code to FOOTPRINT_EDIT_FRAME to use footprint library tables.
* Add an optional build time version of PCB_EDIT_FRAME::loadFootprints() to
populate netlist footprints from footprint library table.
* Remove adding footprints to board whenever GetModuleLibrary() is called and
move loading locally as required.
* Add missing source file license comments and coding policy fixes.
