Symbol editor: pin grid should allow filtering (e.g. by current unit)

Broken out from #9346. Related: #9383 (closed)

Description

I have a component with many units (A though BB). I often want to use the pin view to work on just one unit (i.e. when assigning X/Y coordinates).

  • Current behaviour: pin grid shows all pins in the component
  • Desired behaviour: allow grid to be filtered so it can show either "all units" or just pins in the currently opened unit.
