Fix a 100% CPU core usage is some editing cases.

In commit 7cb754dd a call to wxMilliSleep(50) was removed (because it created
lag in editing) but this removal created a 100% CPU core usage.
Using a much small sleep time (1ms) fixes these issues.

No longer auto-set the Footprint field when setting the FPID

This avoids forcing the field to the footprint name in the
library editor, which gets in the way. This doesn't specifically
inhibit the use of the field, and doesn't interfere with fields
users may have set manually (it can be cleared manually if
wished).

Removing the footprint field entirely either from all footprints
or from footprints in fpedit is quite a bit more invasive to
existing designs.

Allow to set LIB_FIELD size through property manager

This can be useful when managing auxiliary fields.

This is only for the 8.0 branch, as LIB_FIELD is merged
with SCH_FIELD in 8.99, so this is already handled.
