[PATCH/RFC] Footprint editor menu bar

 

Hi all,

Attached is a patch to bring the Footprint Editor menu bar items in
alignment with the Pcbnew one.

I have also tried to clarify the "select active library", "open footprint"
and various save/export options to make the menu items say what they
actually do, for example:

   - I've changed the "Save Active Library As..." item to "Export Library"
   because it didn't change the active library to the newly saved one, which
   is standard "Save As" behaviour.
   - "Load Footprint from Active Library" is now just "Open Footprint"
   since you can load any footprint from any library in the table.

Other than that I have just moved items around and used standard hotkeys.

Regards,
Michael
