There is no technical reason for this restriction for non-power symbols, so let's remove it.
This will allow more flexibility and compatibility with other tools.

When double-clicking to open a symbol, it is no longer selected in the
tree. We need to use the `GetTargetLibId()` to pick the correct symbol
(first selected, then current) when using the duplicate command

(cherry picked from commit 802d20c409)
Also makes sure the progress dialog is closed when we're done reading
symbols (it used to stay up for much of the symbol editor initialization).
Also makes sure that any cancel in the preLoad step is honoured in the
sync step. (The preload is done because it is multi-threaded and therefore
faster than the single-threaded sync.)
Also makes sure that individual threads pay attention to the cancellation,
not just the GUI thread.

Undo/Redo can change the symbol referenced by the symbol drawing tool.
This updates the current symbol before important steps to keep the
system synced

(cherry picked from commit b8a7a66a0a)
There doesn't appear to be any reason why the LIBID needs to be populated
before a "save as", seeing as the user will be inputting the new lib name
and lib nickname via the dialog.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/9744
This allows the workflow:
1) Edit symbol in schematic
2) Save As to original library
Also allows the user to quickly overwrite a symbol they don't want,
either by importing over the existing symbol or creating a new one.
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.
It's tempting to say that we don't need to exclude filename chars
from symbols, but we might regret that decision down the road. Better
to just escape them.

MacOS wxWidgets implementation of wxPrintf/Format suffers from some
issues when mixing string types. We avoid this by manually formatting
the string ourselves.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/8404
Differentiates better between the EDA_ITEM IsModified(), referring to
items themselves changing and the EDA_SCREEN IsContentModified(),
referring to whether we have made any unsaved changes.
wx/wx.h includes all wxWidgets .h files, and sometimes creates collision
names in #define between kicad and windows headers
Moreover, blindly including a lot of useless files is compil time consuming
1) Don't reset value when name changes
2) Don't fire events when initialising dialog
3) Make sure when symbol is saved back to schematic that only current
instance has its ref updated, but that all instances have their other
fields updated.
4) When saving symbol back to board always use the fields from the
editor and not the (alias-specific) ones from the library.
