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
For unique_ptr, release only set the ownership to null, but don't free the resource behind. On the other hand, reset do.

The IO_RELEASER is a thin-wrapper around a std::unique_ptr, but done
this way to allow easier addition of a custom deleter in the future if
something needs to call back into the IO_MGR.
- Move PLUGIN_FILE_DESC to common.
- SCH_PLUGIN: rename Load -> LoadSchematicFile, Save -> SaveSchematicFile.
- Use PLUGIN_FILE_DESC and CanRead* in schematic plugins.
- Return none/unknown types from Find/GuessPluginType functions.
- Iterate over file types for file wildcards.
- Clean-up header checking in IO plugins.
- Use PCB plugin list in IO_MGR::GuessPluginTypeFromLibPath.
- Ensure a change in plugin type is detected
- do not force automatic plugin type selection for *.lib files that need
an access to these libraries: they can be not always available.
This adds Reset() method to KIFACE to reload global libs stored in
global static vars.
Also refactors some lib reload code in various frames to have
common MAIL_RELOAD_LIB handler.

1) if a legacy model references a library then we need to see if said
libraray exists and read model from it if so
2) legacy node ordering is by index, not pin name
3) we can't auto-generate a pin map when we don't know the pin names,
so don't try
Sub-libraries allow a single-level hierarchy inside a symbol library.
This is useful for database libraries and for supporting other EDA library types where a
single file can contain multiple logical groupings of symbols.
Allows placing parts from an external database that reference symbols from another loaded library.
Includes:
- nanodbc wrapper
- database schematic library plugin
- basic tests

Also cleans up the dialog a bit.
Also changes the workings of NormalizePath to return the input if
it couldn't be shortened which saves open coding that behaviour in
all its callers.

Tests for read-only in table save routines and catches other IO_ERRORS.
Still returns a non-specific error message but prevents crashing when
erroring during save.

Versions specific variables that may point to objects that change
through versions, allowing multiple KiCad versions to operate correctly
(even on MSW) on the same machine.
