Fix footprints of RECOM DC/DC converters.

KiCad Bot requested to merge github/fork/rschaeuble/fix-recom-footprints into master

Created by: rschaeuble

Fix footprints of RECOM DC/DC converters, where the 'bulge' was toward the back while it should have been to the front.

The footprints of two of the RECOM DC/DC converters had the buldge of the body toward the wrong side.

Wrong: recom-wrong

Correct: recom-correct

This affected the R-78B-2.0 (see https://www.recom-power.com/pdf/Innoline/R-78Bxx-2.0.pdf, page 5) and the R-78HB-0.5 (see https://www.recom-power.com/pdf/Innoline/R-78HBxx-0.5_L.pdf, page 5).

The changes were quite simple: moving everything except the pins downwards for 4.5mm.

The 3D models also need fixing, for this I created another pull request: https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-packages3D/pull/327
