Add TO-220F footprint & fix TO-220

KiCad Bot requested to merge github/fork/jkriege2/add_to220F into master

Created by: jkriege2

  1. fixed TO-220 footprints: the y-offset of pins to metal-back was wrong, it has been modified to match https://www.vishay.com/docs/66542/to-220-1.pdf
  2. added footpritns for TO-220F (isolated plastic package), see https://www.fairchildsemi.com/package-drawings/TO/TO220M03.pdf
  3. 3D models (TO-220-2/3: full set and TO-220F-2/3: vertical): https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-packages3D/pull/288
  4. 3D model sources: https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-packages3D-source/pull/115
  5. generator script: https://github.com/pointhi/kicad-footprint-generator/pull/120
  6. footprints: https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-footprints/pull/470
  7. remaining KLC-violations are due to very small pin-pitch in 5-pin packages and have been present in the former version too. I don't see any way to satisfy the 0.15mm with these footprint, the distance between the hole outer diamaters is only 0.6mm. All other bugs are also not new, as I mainly renamed the footprints ==> Please ignore
