During the symbol library table implementation, the legal character
tests for the footprint library table were changed and the forward
slash '/' character became illegal. This change broke editing some
users footprint library tables that already had '/' in library table
nicknames. This change split the library nickname and library item
name illegal character tests.
Also sets the initial footprint to the current footprint when
doing a Choose Footprint from the Eeschema Edit Property
dialog.

Any errors in the dialog should be handled and, at worst, allowed to
redo. SPICE_VALUE throws KI_PARAM_ERROR, so we catch that explicitly.

This refactors the symbol field editor's checkbox state-saving code to
deal with multiple projects with disjoint field sets more consistently.
For instance, imagine I have a two projects
* Proj1 has fields A, B, C
* Proj2 has fields A, B, D
Under the old scheme, when I switch from one project to the other the
state of fields C and D will be forgotten. With the new approach,
however, they are retained.
Not to mention, the implementation is considerably simpler. Fixes
This makes it significantly easier to find a particular component when
using the field editor, as I often do for part selection.

The splitter window can not be the parent to any additional windows.
If it acquires a child that persists past the lifetime of the splitter
window, we get a segfault.
It can be useful to have similar class messages grouped together so that
error messages in a larger report don't get lost among the
warning/info/action messages.
This patch allows sorting of messages for dialogs that benefit from
organization. Default behavior of reporter messages remains
unchanged by this patch.

2) Handle default fields in Symbol Fields Editor.
3) Save state of checkboxes in Symbol Fields Editor.
Unifies the different sections of hotkeys so that we are not storing two
[eeschema] or [pcbnew] sections in two different files.
Previous hotkey definitions are loaded at start if they exist but are
overwritten by the new format, if it exists. Changes to hotkeys save
only in the combined format.
Hotkey editor for each application only shows the hotkeys relevant to
that application.

This patch prevents fields with long text values from unreasonable
dialog resizing. It is basically commit f4eb63f8 applied to a
corresponding field editor dialog in the Symbol Editor.
This is particularly important when bulk adding (by director, etc.)
as otherwise the user might end up having to click OK to many
many error dialogs.

Code fixing Spice device names (prefixing reference with a character
corresponding to the assigned device model type) that was duplicated in
a few places has been moved to a function (NETLIST_EXPORTER_PSPICE::GetSpiceDevice()).
Also removes parallel implementation in favour of using the
normal one (with a new wxGauge-backed PROGRESS_REPORTER).

Symbol/footprint library and entry have the same set of forbidden
characters with a single exception, space character. To accommodate for
this difference, LIB_ID validation and fix methods have been extended to
specify the LIB_ID type that is checked (schematic/board).
LIB_ID::HasIllegalChars() and LIB_ID::FixIllegalChars() had two different
sets of characters treated as invalid in LIB_IDs. The set has been
factored out to another function to avoid duplication.
Field Editor dialog calls LIB_EDIT::SetFields() that deletes the old
LIB_FIELD objects and creates new ones. If any of the old LIB_FIELD
objects had been selected before invoking the dialog, then one of the
update UI event handlers will crash trying to access the object.
While we already cache the loaded footprint files, parsing said files
into the list is also time-intensive. Since the FOOTPRINT_LIST is
already hash-stamped against the current timestamps of the files that
make up the list, sharing a single copy of the list is quite
straight-forward.
The backup code was designed for a project with all of the schematics
in the project folder which is not always the case. Fix the schematic
backup to keep the schematic folder structure in tact during backups.

For some reason, when calling python and giving a full filename script, the last separator in the filename
must be '/', not '\'.
Otherwise the import command inside the script does not find files to import in the same folder as the script.
We cannot replace blindly '\' to '/' in command line because it does not work for file on a server (name starting by \\server_name\).
So the fix is just replacing one '\' in python script full filename.
This is not perfect, but at least it works for newly created plugin commands.
Currently, if a old label already containing a '/' (or a space) is edited, it is accepted,
but no new not allowed char can be added to the label.
(Previously, a sheet pin label was not filtered)
This also makes the dialog modeless so that one switch between
sheets while annotating to choose the base numbers for each
sheet (assuming they don't like the base number we pick because
of the order of the sheets).

Also fixes:
- forcing the annotation scope to "full schematic" when run
as a prerequisite to Generate Netlist.
- a long-standing bug where displaying extra items in a dialog
would mess up the height of the HTML_REPORT_PANEL (becasue
we were setting the html window's height rather than its
parent flexgrid.
- initializing the annotation radio buttons to safe values
(full schematic and keep existing)

Rename GetPolyPoint() to BuildPolyPointsList(), because GetPolyPoint() looks like an accessor, but it is not an accessor.

The alias list now displays the user model (multiple aliases *of*
a root part, rather than a collection of names *including* the
root part). This simplified the error detection logic, fixing
the first bug in the bug report.
Updating the part in the library is now done uniformly on OK
(which was the second bug in the bug report).

At least on Linux, if a null icon is used as icon in Pin Type column, other icons are not
