* Add item clarification context menu to EESchema when multiple unresolved
items are found at the current cross hair position.
* Add collector class SCH_COLLECTOR for supporting multiple item hit testing.
* Removed bit wise masked filtering from schematic item hit testing.
* Removed all old hit testing functions and methods scattered about the
EESchema source code.
* Move terminal point test function into SCH_SCREEN object.
* Fixed bug in terminal point test when terminating a bus to a label.
* Define the < operator for sorting schematic items.
* Add area calculation method to EDA_Rect item.
* Add method for returning an item's bitmap for menu display purposes.
* Add method for returning an item's menu text for menu display purposes.
* Changed EDA_ITEMS container from boost::ptr_vector to std::vector.
* Factor coordinate string conversion code from EDA_DRAW_FRAME to function
CoordinateToString().
F1.) Allows you to disable a component from the Netlist. Useful for connectors etc.
To exclude a component from the Spice Netlist add [Spice_Netlist_Enabled] user FIELD set to: N
F2.) Allows you to adapt to simulation libraries that require the netlist node
sequence to be in a different order. To reorder the component spice node sequence
add [Spice_Node_Sequence] user FIELD and define sequence: 2,1,0 I am using
LTSpice, but this holds true for any SPICE subcircuit.

Note1: Patch maintains existing SpiceNetlister behavior as far as I can tell
------------------------------------------------------------------
Updated Patch from Prior release:
New Changes consists of:
1.) Now allowing user to put in less Nodes then exist on the actual part.
2.) Now echoing Schematic Sheet Netlist components come from. This helps users segment the netlist in to understandable blocks of code that mimic the schematic sheets.
3.) Retested.
* Set default button on all dialogs that do not already have a defined
default button. The only exception is the EESchema net list dialog
which needs converted over to wxFormBuilder and due to it's design makes
setting the default button in any tab other than the default tab
problematic.
* Fix escape key dialog handling bug in EESchema print post script
dialog.
* Remove clearance and net class name read only text boxes from PCBNew
auxiliary tool bar.
* Display full net class information in message panel when an object that
supports net classes is selected.
* Move coordinate string conversion function to EDA_DRAW_FRAME object and
made it more versatile.
* Refresh message panel text when units change.
* Move locate function code into schematic screen object.
* Move test for junction needed into schematic screen object.
* Move test for marking connected items into schematic screen object.
* Move delete item function code into schematic screen object.
* Move delete all markers code into schematic screen object.
* Add method for locating multiple items in schematic screen object.
* Fix minor bug in schematic field object hit test declaration.
* Initial encapsulation work on item picker object.
* Remove duplicate doxygen comments from item picker object source file.
