Trying to open a kicad_pcb from old-stable in the 5.0 branch fails.

The test file is
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/myriadrf/reference-development-kit/master/umyriadrf-7002/v2/KiCAD/uMyriad7002.kicad_pcb

Inspired by the info from http://kicad-pcb.org/help/upgrading/ about the layer names. It looks like some layers are missing in the top of the file.

I manually added
(10 Inner10.Cu signal)
(9 Inner9.Cu signal)
(8 Inner8.Cu signal)
(7 Inner7.Cu signal)

The question is: Do we need to implement some, legacy logic to handle these files? Maybe an experimental file healer for know issues?
