Thomas Pointhuber 3f36e7d725 altium: Start with a test-suite to validate that *.PcbLib footprints are correctly imported
The test simply loads every footprint of a library, and compares all elements with an equivalent
KiCad footprint. This allows us to quickly spot regressions in the altium and kicad footprint importer,
and any code in-between. This test is only a demo, as the checks are still incomplete and quite a few
tests are missing.

It has to be noted that mask expansion is not supported rigt now by the altium importer, thus the
reference footprint is adjusted to keep the test happy.
