For unknown reasons, one method of writing was not working on Windows.
This is an attempt to write using the common wxFFileOutputStream to see
if that results in better output for Windows clients

Each editor needs the embedded files tab in the
schematic/pcb/symbol/footprint settings. But the footprint may add an
embedded file from the 3d models tab and symbols/footprints may add
embedded files from the grid. This should be immediately visible in the
embedded files tab. Additionally, removing the reference to an embedded
file in the grid or 3d models now removes the embedded file as well.

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
Schematics, symbols, boards and footprints all get the ability to store
files inside their file structures. File lookups now have a
kicad-embed:// URI to allow various parts of KiCad to refer to files
stored in this manner.
kicad-embed://datasheet.pdf references the file named "datasheet.pdf"
embedded in the document. Embeds are allowed in schematics, boards,
symbols and footprints. Currently supported embeddings are Datasheets,
3D Models and drawingsheets
