Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to
repeatly update.
Also updates AUTHORS.txt from current repo with contributor names
Using wxASSERT to check for a null pointer will crash after dismissing the
assertion dialog in debug builds and crash in release builds. Use wxCHECK
to take the correct action to prevent the crash.
In large designs with thousands of duplicate elements (e.g. power
symbols), we need to be smart about vector management. Removing all but
the first few items should be batched and not element at a time

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).
* Add check for valid symbol library link in annotation code to prevent
crash even if the symbol was not defined correctly. This will assert
in debug builds.
* Fix broken pin comparisons when library symbols have units with alternate
body style defined.
* Remove some macros from LIB_SYMBOL comparison function which made
debugging painful.
* Exit LIB_SYMBOL comparison function as soon as non-equivalent comparison
occurs.
* Fix broken library symbol comparison due to name differences when
checking for existing variants of the library symbol.

Testing if the symbol associated with unit X has a different number of
total units than the symbol associated with unit Y should report the
actual error to the user.
This cleans the various display of these error messages

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.

Duplicates are reannotated on paste in the same way in pcbnew and
eeschema such that when copying and pasting the same block in the
pcb and schematic, the reference designators will match.
