EDA_ITEMs are responsible for giving their parent a crack at it if
they failed to resolve it. This recurses all the way up to the schematic/
board, and then to the project.
Cross-reference handling is also move to the EDA_ITEMs. It must be done
before bubbling up so that we don't end up in loops. (The aDepth parameter
will break the loop, but without having done anything useful.)

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.
Bitmaps are now identified by an enum class instead of by pointers.
Bitmap loading and caching is now handled by a class in common, and
we no longer compile most bitmaps into the binary, so there is no
longer a bitmaps static library.
Instead, bitmaps are archived to a .tar.gz file which is installed
in ${KICAD_DATA}/resources/images.tar.gz
The source PNGs are checked in to Git as the original CPP files were,
so that people can build without the required dependencies to convert
SVGs to PNGs.
Initial support is also added for dark theme icons, although this
is not yet exposed in the GUI.
Stubs are present for multi-resolution image resources, but this is
not fully-baked yet and could use some refinement.
CHANGED footprint positions files -> component placement files.
Not all footprints get placed, so component is a more neutral word.
Use of "placement" instead of "positions" removes the double-plural
that makes footprint positions files such a mouth-full.

Replace SEVERITY_ERROR by RPT_SEVERITY_ERROR to avoid collision with a system definition.
