Blanket exclude_points in clamp_stub_length() skipped same-component
obstacles regardless of direction, allowing stubs to bridge through
adjacent pins (R2 +3V3/SDA). Moved exclusion to batch.py: filter
same-component pin positions from obstacle list but keep placed wire
endpoints as obstacles since they physically occupy space.
clamp_stub_length() was treating all pins as potential obstacles,
including pins on the same component. On vertical caps like C7 with
5.08mm pin spacing, pin 1 clamped pin 2's stub to near-zero. Added
exclude_points parameter so callers can skip same-component pins
that cannot cause external net bridges.
resolve_wire_collision() was shifting both stub endpoints when avoiding
collinear overlaps, detaching the wire from the pin. Now only the label
end shifts perpendicular to the axis while the start stays anchored.
The obstacle pre-scan ran before component placement, caching None
for every pin on components being created in the same batch. Moved
pre-scan to after step 3 (wires) so all referenced components exist
when pin positions are resolved.
7.62mm default stubs caused shorts on small passives and stacked
labels where pin-to-pin distance was less than the stub length.
clamp_stub_length() now auto-shortens stubs when obstacles (adjacent
pins, placed wire endpoints) are detected in the stub's path, with
a 1.27mm clearance margin and 2.54mm minimum floor.
Default stub_length increased from 2.54mm to 7.62mm (3 grid units)
so labels clear component bodies. Per-connection stub_length and
direction overrides added for edge cases where auto-placement puts
labels in bad spots.

server restart required to load new sexp_parser.py code.
sch.components.get() returns only the first unit instance for a given
reference. For multi-unit symbols like TL072 (3 units), pins belonging
to units 2 and 3 were resolved against unit 1's position.
Added pin-to-unit mapping via KiCad sub-symbol naming convention
(e.g. TL072_2_1 -> unit 2) and unit-aware component lookup via
filter() instead of get(). Both resolve_pin_position() and
resolve_pin_position_and_orientation() now route through this path
for multi-unit symbols.
Pass unit field through to kicad-sch-api's native multi-unit validation
instead of custom bypass. Removes _add_multi_unit() that used incompatible
internal API (_add_item vs _add_item_to_collection across API versions).
Wire collision detection: apply_batch now tracks placed wire segments and
detects collinear stubs on the same axis with overlapping ranges belonging
to different nets. Colliding wires shift perpendicular to their axis by
1.27mm, preventing KiCad from merging wire segments into mega-nets.
Project-local library resolution: apply_batch now scans batch component
lib_ids for unknown libraries and registers them with kicad-sch-api's
SymbolLibraryCache via sym-lib-table parsing before component placement.
Unblocks projects using Samacsys and other non-standard symbol libraries.
Root ERC: run_schematic_erc accepts root=True to resolve to the project
root schematic before running kicad-cli, enabling hierarchy-aware ERC
that eliminates ~180 false-positive global_label_dangling warnings from
sub-sheet isolation.
270/270 tests pass, ruff + mypy clean.
