Fixes devbisme#167 . Calling `generate_svg()` when using KiCAD version 6 or 7 doesn't work, raising a `NotImplementedError` because the `gen_svg_comp()` function wasn't implemented. This commit modifies the library parsing to process the drawing commands and implements the `gen_svg_comp()` funtion.

fixes #167
The following branch allows the
generate_svg()function to work properly with a KiCAD version 7 (and probably version 6) library, but I need some feedback on a few things before I think it's ready to merge:generate_schematic()function and wonder whethergenerate_svg()is going to be obsolete..svgfiles to see if they're correctsideparameter has been set correctly. It can be visualized by uncommentingtools/kicad/v6.py:961and then generating the svg. Some of these jogs are very annoying because they cause the lines to go through multiple pins on the same part so it's unclear to which pin the wire is connected.symtxis done using a<g> transform() <g/>tag enclosing the svg at the exact scale and orientation indicated by the library. I felt this was a little cleaner but others might disagree.
