NKK GW12xxH SPDT right-angle rocker switch

KiCad Bot requested to merge github/fork/ppelleti/gw12 into master

Created by: ppelleti

Datasheet.

I was not sure how to handle the pin numbering, so let me know what I should do.

The datasheet specifies the pins as 4, 5, and 6, but I numbered them 1, 2, and 3, to allow the footprint to be used with the existing library symbol for an SPDT switch. The alternative would be to create a new library symbol where the pins are numbered 4, 5, and 6.

I left the mounting pins unnumbered. The alternative would be to number them MP. This would then require a new library symbol, too, since there does not seem to be a symbol for a switch with a mounting pin.
