This removes inheritance from the symbol.
This doesn't play well with undo, but then again, neither does symbol
deletion, so that seems like a higher-level symbol editor issue.

The workflow turns out to be slightly different
than a Save As to a new library.
(We don't assume it goes in a library table; we
flatten the symbol; and we pre-load the library
name.)

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
Allows the user to easily 'upgrade' into a library edit action if
they choose the wrong one of Ctrl+E or Ctrl+Shift+E.
Increaes consistency with FP editing.
Moves the logic into the SCH_RENDER_SETTINGS, rather than
repeating it in EESCHEMA/SYMBOL_EDITOR_SETTINGS (they still
maintain their state there, but the painter looks at the
SCH_RENDER_SETTINGS).
Also turn them off for preview purposes.
The default hotkey is Ctrl+L, as this is not bound by
default in the FP or symbol editor, and it is the hotkey
that is used to focus the address bar in web browsers,
which is a similar kind of action.
Short description:
Works for Symbol and Footprint Editor behind an advanced config option.
For Symbol Editor it is shown for a single item selection (library or symbol).
For Footprint Editor it is shown for a footprint selection.
(fp editor allows a single tree item selection only).
Option stays hidden if current frame has been modified.
Also small fix(?) for similar action to the project manager.
(Call for the Execution has moved inside the file loop.)

dropping files to Kicad manager :
*.kicad_pro, *.pro -> open project;
gerber and job files -> open in Gerbview editor;
Eagle and Cadstar files -> open project.
dropping file to schematic editor -> append schematic;
dropping library file to Symbol editor -> add library;
dropping board file to PCB editor -> append board;
dropping library or footprint file to Footprint editor -> add library or import footprint;
dropping ZIP file or gerber files to Gerbview editor -> open files;
dropping sheet file to Drawing Sheet editor -> open sheet.

Particularly important on Mac where the menubar is disabled when the
frame is used in modal mode.
Also adds a display control to override the symbol's show pin numbers
setting.

Some differences are due to difference between libraries being files
in symbol editor and directories in footprint editor, but this unifies
most of the rest.
It also dispenses with the save-to-library vs save-to-document distinction
in the GUI because it makes for too much variability in the GUI, was
implemented differently between the two editors, and isn't needed as much
anymore now that we have the highly visible infobar.
There was also an issue that the save-to-board icon occupies the same
location and has the same size/shape/colours as the Board Setup icon in
PCBNew.
