Pcbnew GAL Highlight Net tool doesn't cross-probe

[Dick Hollenbeck]

PCBNEW:

The GAL canvas, in contrast to the legacy canvas, does not fire a cross probe message when selecting
a pad with the highlite net tool. I know I added this to the legacy canvas, and could really use it in the GAL canvas. It is of course conditional on a pad being clicked on (and not a trace), but it would gives both the highlited net (as expected) and then also the component pin in eeschema.
