This is useful when you want to copy text content out to some
external program (or put it in a text item/box).
I'm not sure it's possible to intuit exactly what a user wants,
as you will often want to copy items as the real items, and sometimes
as text. While KiCad might be able to make a smart guess, external
programs will have no chance!
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.
PCB and footprint editors were already blocking this. Otherwise we would
get weird issues when pasting while drawing things like sheets or
textboxes that aren't selected while drawing.
Actually add a whole new panel for symbol editor appearance control.
Use the SYMBOL_EDITOR_SETTINGS as the source of truth in a
couple more places, but the SCH_PAINTER settings are still
driving quite a bit here and there.

This is a little more primitive than the pcbnew tool,
in the same way that the arc tool is also more primitive
(no interactive manager).
It works just about well enough to get the curves drawn,
but all these tools could do with some interactivity
in esschema and symbol editor.

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

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.
We only allow a certain number of commands on the lists
and trim them when they overflow. PCB_BASE_EDIT_FRAME and
PL_EDITOR_FRAME implemented this correctly; SCH_EDIT_FRAME
and SYMBOL_EDIT_FRAME did not.
This fixes all of the warnings cause by using std::weak_ptr objects when
recursing the symbol inheritance tree to retrieve the root symbol. The
issue is that the weak pointers are not guaranteed to be valid for each
recursion because the lock will go out of scope. Using a std::shared_ptr
object will ensure the lock is valid until it goes out of scope.
