Added Molex 74320-4004 and Molex 74320-1004 DVI connectors

Patrick Baus requested to merge PatrickBaus/kicad-footprints:add_DVI into master

This MR adds two new footprints for DVI connectors. The Molex 74320-1004 (DVI-I) and Molex 74320-4004 (DVI-D).

These footprints belong to the new DVI symbol presented in kicad-symbols!4438 (merged)

The footprints also come with a 3D model: kicad-packages3D!990

3D model source MR: kicad-packages3D-source!403

I have added these footprints to a new library called Connector_DVI. The reason is behind this is that there is a library called Connector_HDMI and I want to add some more DVI connector footprints in the near future. If this proves to be a problem, I can easily move them to another library.

Molex in their infinite wisdom decided to lay out the footprint in funny units, so kept to that grid.

Molex 74320-4004 (DVI-D)

DVI-D_footprint_molex

Note: I have already updated pin 1 to have a rectangular shape in eb261b9b.

DVI-D_footprint

Molex 74320-1004 (DVI-I) This footprint is almost the same as above, but with the additional analog part on the right-hand-side.

DVI-I_footprint_molex

Note: I have already updated pin 1 to have a rectangular shape in eb261b9b.

DVI-I_footprint

Note: I have violated KLC F7.2. The footprint is not centered on pin 1, because Molex seems to have centered it on pin 22 or rather the midpoint of the body. I have done so as well. I can change it though if desired.
