HTTP library not creating correct library link when a component is placed
Description
When placing a symbol from a httplib the library link is incorrect. This causes the ERC to throw an error that it could not find a symbol with the current symbol link. When the tools "edit symbol library links" is used, it creates a correct symbol link and thus no ERC error.
Steps to reproduce
- In schematic editor, open "Symbol library browser" and select a symbol.

- Place the symbol in the schematic and run an ERC.

- Click "Tools" -> "Edit symbol library links" and choose the same symbol.

- The library link is now correct and the ERC will not report this error anymore.
