Hierarchical sheet resize should not move hierarchical sheet pins

Description

"Hierarchical sheet pins" (electrical connections) should not be moved while resizing "Hierarchical sheet".

Steps to reproduce

  1. Place hierarchical sheet with pins on the left, wire the pins;
  2. Try to resize sheet up-right;
  3. Hierarchical pins are stuck to the upper part of the sheet and are dragged together with a mouse pointer;

This disrupts existing wiring an usually a lot of effort is needed to wire things back as it was after resize;

hsheets

Consider if pins are placed vertically: in this case horizontal resize should not move vertically placed pins.
