It appears that in our zeal to prevent file changes when saving shared
schematics, we (I) clobbered saving relative symbol instance data paths
to the clipboard. This has be restored along with setting the correct
symbol unit for relative clipboard paths.
Fixed a serious issue with KIID_PATH::MakeRelativeTo() where the original
path was not restored when the incremental KIID object test fails. This
also included a minor optimization using the actual KIID object for
comparison instead of converting it to a string and then comparing the
string.

Also fixes a bug where ERC testing for text variables in sheet pins
would start with the wrong sheet.
Also fixes a bug where ERC testing of similar labels would use the
wrong sheet.
Also fixes a bug where ERC testing of bus-to-net conflicts would use
the wrong sheet.
Also fixes a bug where ERC didn't process variable references when
checking hierarchical labels against sheet pins.
Also fixes a bug where ERC multiple-drivers and netclass-conflicts
tests didn't set a sheetpath.
SCH_PIN pointers are used through KiCad and removing them without a
global refresh risks crashes. A safer approach is to simply reuse the
SCH_PIN structures, updating the data to the revised library

A sheetpath is required to correctly resolve text variables.
Depending on currentSheet is rife with bugs.
There are many places where we do *not* want to be prepending
field names to the field values, such as netlisting,
building PDF hypertext menus, etc.
Also, Find/Replace needs to work on unresolved text, as
that's what we're going to display (and if replace nuked
your variable references you wouldn't be happy).
The netlist exporter was never updated to exclude symbols that are
tagged as power symbols. Only the legacy power symbol name prefix
('#') was used as the power symbol check. Power symbols no longer
require the '#' name prefix.
The list of candidates (names) must be restricted to existing global labels
and symbols creating a global net name: power symbols having only one power
input pin (a power output does not create net name).

Also adds simulation model inference to Symbol Editor's Simulation Model
Editor, and adds write-back from both Simulation Model Editors to their
parent Symbol Fields Editor dialogs.

This will make it possible to maintain sheet instance information when
copying and pasting from any sheet other that the root sheet of a
project.
Setting and getting sheet page numbers must now be performed using a
sheet path. This was done to ensure that the instance paths were not
getting changed unexpectedly from different code paths.
Eeschema shows background fills on a different z-level than the rest of
the symbols/elements. Print the backgrounds prior to the foregrounds in
order to preserve this view for print output

This change reverts the storage of all symbol instance data in the root
schematic. This was done because it's not possible to reuse instance
data when importing from sub-sheets.
There has been a fundamental change in how sheet paths are store in the
instance data. The root schematic UUID is always used when saving the
instance data. To prevent file churn, the virtual root sheet UUID is set
to the root schematic UUID when loading the project. This provides a way
to determine the project that stored the instance data. All uses of paths
without root sheet have been expunged from the code.
The sheet instance data is still saved only in the root sheet for the
time being. New sheet instances will be automatically assigned an page
number based on the incremental virtual sheet page number. Sheet page
numbers will not be imported.
Added project name to instance data to improve the readability of the
schematic file format. It also creates an opportunity to remove orphaned
instance data by project name rather than cryptic UUIDs.

Pass the current SCHEMATIC object pointer in SCH_SYMBOL ctor so that
newly created symbols will update the current instance data on creation
when the current sheet instance is being displayed.
This is a better fix for the master branch and cherry-picking from 6.0
was a mess.
