This PR moves control options such as the number of positions or the display width and height to the manufacturer control definition using the arg syntax, rather than relying on KiCad parts symbol fields to do so.
It is a bit better, because those options could potentially not be related to the part for some reason (though, that's always the case for now),
This is preparation work for some Encoder options, as the current system makes editing a bit more complex, and is also prone to errors, since the options are hidden somewhere in a component in one of the parts of a control.
We will use it also to replace the current class for the simulator, which is a bit weird as well.
