Bug Description

There is no way to individually delete an assigned footprint from 'eeschema - assign footprints'.

I tried to remove some assigned footprints after realizing I wanted to change the package size of the component but haven't picked a replacement yet. Being able to remove the currently assigned footprint would allow me to know that it was still needing to be done. I temporally fixed my issue by going into 'eeschem - symbol properties' and deleting the assigned footprint. This did work but I had to do it for each of the 10 resistors and 10 caps I decided to update.
