The sheet list is returned as a copy of the cached list rather than a
reference to prevent external code from changing the list. While not as
performant, it eliminates the risk of the sheet list being altered in
ways that could break the schematic. The sheet list should only be
updated by calling SCHEMATIC::RefreshHierarchy() when any appropriate
sheet changes are made.
Note to developers: there is something inherently different about how the
QA tests are loading and handling schematics versus the schematic editor.
Using the cached sheet list for the SCHEMATIC object will cause some QA
test to fail. This is why SCHEMATIC::Hierarchy() has not replaced
SCHEMATIC::BuildSheetListSortedByPageNumbers() everywhere.
- Adds Component Class field to SCH_DIRECTIVE_LABEL
- Adds SCH_SYMBOLs to SCH_RULE_AREA item lists
- SCH_SYMBOLs resolve Component Class directives
- Netlist exporter / importer handles Component Class names
- Adds DRC expressions and functions
- Adds QA check for component class netlist export
This means that labels keep the position relative
to what they are connected to after the swap.
An attempt is made to map the fields of a label
into the position of a matching field (i.e. same name)
on the swapped-to label.
Move the SCH_FIELD rotation justification
handling to the SCH_FIELD class, so it's not just
SCH_LABEL that handles it.

At 10, a strict recursion shows a noticable lag in schematics with
larger numbers of fields. 2 may be a sweet spot unless we find a
schematic where this does not work
Reference, Value, Footprint and Datasheet all reference elements that
should not use trailing/leading whitespace or similar hidden charaters.
Other fields may utilize leading/trailing whitespace for obscure
purposes but won't break functionality as they are display only
Also removes the side-effect that SCH_SHEET_LIST's
c'tor would sort the list (and write virtual page
numbers) anytime the starting sheet was the root.
Also, definitely don't build a SHEET_LIST (sorted or
otherwise) if you're not even going to use it.
Also don't build SCH_SHEET_LISTs on idle events. Better
to just always have the Next Sheet button enabled (we
already beep if you click it and there's no next sheet).
Also, use a SCREEN_LIST when you can. It's much cheaper
to create.
C++20 added new reverse and rewritten candidates. This can confuse the compiler because it'll test both A==B and B==A for overloads.
Because we were defining parent class equality overloads, A==B and B==A was considered ambigious due to both being compatible in casting.
So we needed to add explicit child class equality operator overloads
This is required to keep selected and brightened state across undo.
It's also probably required for things like IS_SHOWN_AS_BITMAP and
possibly ENTERED. FWIW, most BOARD_ITEMs do a straight swap, including
the temp and edit flags. But that seems like a risky change....
Also removes SyncView() call from Undo/Redo as that does a MODEL_RELOAD
which clears the selection.
