Given a symbol U12A, some parts of the code were assuming the prefix was
'U' while others were assuming 'U12'. Further complication arose when
there were '?' in the library version.

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.

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: KiCAD allows connecting components directly together in
schematics. If the user drags one of the components, KiCAD
adds a wire to keep the conection intact. It should do the same for
net and global labels but it doesn't.
This MR adds net and global labels to the list of items that can connect
to other items.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7713
1) Generalize SCH_ITEM owners (SCH_COMPONENT, SCH_SHEET, and now
SCH_GLOBALLABEL)
2) Generalize hypertext items
3) Use SCH_FIELD autoplace infrastructure for placing intersheet
references
4) Use textVar infrastructure for buildin intersheet references.
As an important side-effect this also fixes the undo issues with
intersheet refs.
1) use SCH_COMPONENT::GetRef(), GetValue() and GetFootprint() when
instance-specific info is needed
2) update UpdateAllScreenReferences() to handle value and footprint.
3) BACKANNO is CvPcb's handler, not back annotation's handler. Which
means it needs GUI behaviour, not back annotation behaviour.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5520
Also fixes a couple of bugs where resolving a textVar reference
to the refDes or unit wouldn't get the correct value in a
hierarchical schematic. (Unlogged.)

Cross-probing from Pcbnew to Eeschema revealed that EEschema was
including all fields, visible or not, when calculating the bounding
box of the probed componentt. This caused problems with long strings
such as URLs that were not set as visible. The cross-probing code
tries to minimize 'Zoom to Fit' operations when it's not necessary,
and the overly large bbox values often resulted in zooms not being
performed and components displayed very small.
This code adds a version of 'GetBoundingBox' that takes a boolean
to tell it to include invisble fields or not.

Remove extraneous use of FLAG0 from tracks cleaner (it was checked but
never set).
Fix issue in expand connections where two parts of it couldn't agree
on the same flag (BUSY vs SKIP_STRUCT), and where the second part was
clearing the flag instead of setting it.
Remove obsolete HIGHLIGHT infrastructure (we now use selection).
Remove extraneous use of BUSY flag in several places (it was never
set).
This provides a method to add symbols that represent footprints on the
board that do not have an associate component such as mounting holes,
fiducials, logos, etc that should be excluded from the bill of materials.
It also prevents those footprints from being removed from the board
accidentally when updating the board from the schematic.
ADDED: Support to exclude schematic symbols from bill of materials
export.
