Comment 10 for bug 1676220

@Chris, increasing the footprint pin match count somewhat resolved the
issue. I can see a lot more footprint matches now but not all of them.
I can see users being confused when they don't see all of the footprints
they expect. This is most likely only going to be an issue with certain
pin counts. Two seems to be the pin count with the greatest number of
potential footprints. Given that this covers most resistors and
capacitors, it may be problematic.

I tested some symbols with other pin counts to test my theory. When I
select any of the 3 pin PNP/NPN transistor symbols from the device
library, the footprint list is empty. I would expect the footprint list
to contain every 3 pin footprint. When I select the 2N2219 or 2N3055
symbols from the transistor library, I get the correct default footprint
along with all of the 3 pin footprints in the footprint list. There is
definitely something odd happening with the footprint pin count filtering.
