Relay and Relay_SolidState symbol cleanup

evanshultz requested to merge github/fork/evanshultz/relay-cleanup into master

Fixes #1956 (closed).

No pins changed position at all! Little to no changes to the actual symbols; this is about making things more elegant. However, there were some small changes to the solid state symbols so here are are a couple reference images: image image image image

Relay: -Pin name offset to 20mil -Use as few lines as possible -Diodes are unfilled with a middle line -Shrack relays to diagonal line coil style -Convert polylines of characters to text -Make text upright when viewed in libedit -Move NC pins to symbol outline

Relay_SolidState: -Use as few lines as possible -Diodes are unfilled with a middle line -Move NC pins to symbol outline -Set TLP148G as ALIAS of TLP141G

To avoid maintenance issues and make this the standard symbols from which users can take if they contribute new symbols, I'd really like to see this merged quickly. Thanks!
