Add Kingbright AAA3528ESGCT footprint

evanshultz requested to merge github/fork/evanshultz/AAA3528ESGCT into master

I'd like help with the footprint name. https://www.digikey.com/products/en/optoelectronics/led-indication-discrete/105?k=aaa3528 lists a bunch of Kingbright MPNs that all start with AAA3528 so that would seem an obvious choice since all of those parts could fit the footprint. The suffix varies by the LED colors. However, https://www.digikey.com/products/en/optoelectronics/leds-circuit-board-indicators-arrays-light-bars-bar-graphs/106?k=aaa3528 shows another pile of Kingbright MPNs that all start with the same 7 characters but are physically incompatible. Those also vary by LED colors. Should it stay like this, with the footprints all individualized, since the 3D model would have different LED colors anyway?

Note: there is not currently a symbol that fits this footprint, but I'll do that once the footprint is merged.
