Footprint for 55510-140LF in Eagle uses dimension layer for outline #110

The footprint for the low speed connector in Eagle currently uses the dimension layer to indicate the outline of the part. The dimension layer is used to control the dimension of the PCB and this causes all sorts of problems like not being able to route between pins and other DRC errors.

These lines should be changed to something like the tPlace layer with an additional tDocu outline.
