Previously, comparelibs.py had to run a separate process for checklib.py. This meant loading a whole Python interpreter potentially hundreds of times for a large library with a lot of changes, making the script run fairly slowly. This commit refactors checklib.py so it can be loaded as a module. comparelibs.py is also changed to use checklib.py this way. This change makes comparelibs.py run in about 80% the time it used to (~33.5s vs ~27s) when comparing KiCad 4.0.7's device.lib to the current kicad-symbols Device.lib.

Previously, comparelibs.py had to run a separate process for checklib.py. This meant loading a whole Python interpreter potentially hundreds of times for a large library with a lot of changes, making the script run fairly slowly.
This commit refactors checklib.py so it can be loaded as a module. comparelibs.py is also changed to use checklib.py as a module, avoiding having to start lots of subprocesses. This change makes comparelibs.py run in about 80% the time it used to (~33.5s vs ~27s on my machine) when comparing KiCad 4.0.7's device.lib to the current kicad-symbols Device.lib.
