There is only a simplistic multi-net pattern expression
generator here (A|B|...) with a single prefix detected
rather than anything too fancy.

This adds the ability to export the pin table content to a CSV file
or the clipboard as CSV, then re-import it from CSV or TSV. This allows:
* to round-trip pin table data via a spreadsheet program, so that the pin
data can be manipulated in a richer/more familiar editing environment
* an import method to bring in tabular pin data from other formats
"semi-automatically", without having to write a full-blown symbol generator.

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
mainly because we now use std::string in a lot of function using previously char*
FROM_UTF8(const char* cstring) now calls From_UTF8(const char* cstring)
For historical reasons they are stored in a string using spaces as separators.
So each fp filter is now escaped to remove spaces (replaced by {space})

They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
