Do not use the symbol field string to populate the value and footprint
grid cells. The field strings may be empty because the symbol has not
been instantiated yet by entering a sheet. This fix makes an incorrect
assumption that the first instance value and footprint data in the symbol
is the same for all instances.
Note: this fix is incomplete because the value and footprint fields are
can now be different between sheet instances. The entire field
table editor design will need to be rethought because the current
grouping doesn't allow different value and footprint instance
changes.

For some reason, escaped double quotes in wxString::Format cause issues
on Mac. We can replace them with single quotes in most places without
loss of clarity
In the symbol fields table the reference contains only the letter, so
the number must be appended. Conversely, we don't want the unit suffix
as all units are folded into a single symbol.

This function attempted a poor-man's natural compare but it assumed
specific structure of the string. This broke for strings with
numberings that looked like decimals.
Instead, we use our natural string comparison function and remove the
references to this older function and its similar elements.

They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
