Ryan Malloy f797e9e070 Fix Y-axis inversion and label_connections save-order race condition
Two bugs in pin position resolution that caused incorrect schematic
coordinates and 28% label placement failures:

1. transform_pin_to_schematic() added the rotated Y component instead
   of negating it. lib_symbol pins use Y-up; schematics use Y-down.
   Fix: comp_y + ry -> comp_y - ry.

2. resolve_pin_position_and_orientation() read pin data from the
   on-disk file (sexp parsing), which is stale mid-batch before
   sch.save(). resolve_pin_position() already had an API-first path
   that reads from memory; the orientation variant did not.
   Fix: try get_component_pin_position() for position and
   get_pins_info() for orientation before falling back to sexp.

Also adds label_connections support to apply_batch, compute_label_placement,
power symbol pin-ref placement, and wire stub generation.

Re 133/133 confirmed -- both fixes verified

label_connections: 133/133

Re-ran esp32_p4_core.json after MCP reconnect. All 133 label connections placed on a fresh schematic.

Run Labels placed Total ops
Before fix 96/133 (72%) 219
After fix 133/133 (100%) 256

The 37 previously-missing labels (FB2_0.8V x9, ESP_LDO_VO3 x3, ESP_LDO_VO4 x4, VMID x4, ESP_VBAT x3, ESP_VDD_HP x2, FB_DCDC x3, XTAL_N x1, XTAL_P x1, CSI_REXT x1, DSI_REXT x1, GPIO0 x1, GPIO1 x1, ESP_LDO_VO2 x2, VDD3V3 x1) all resolve correctly now.

XTAL_N has both labels: R27 pin 2 AND U8 pin 9. FB2_0.8V has all 13 across capacitors, inductor, resistor, and IC pins.

Combined verification: Y-axis + label_connections

Both fixes working together on esp32_p4_core sheet:

Feature Status
Y-axis transform (comp_y - ry) Verified: C25 GND pin at y=186.69 matches fix_pin_positions.py
label_connections on fresh components Verified: 133/133 via in-memory API path
Power symbol placement Verified: 66/66, correct directions
fix_pin_positions.py still needed No

Updated scorecard

Script Status
fix_pin_positions.py (250 lines) Retired
fix_label_collisions.py (243 lines) Still needed
fix_indentation.py Still needed
label_connections placement rate Fixed (100%)

Two scripts remain. Ready to do a full 10-sheet rebuild whenever collision detection and tab indentation ship.
