ERC no longer fully functional with no-connects

[Ron Burkey]

I have a number of schematics in which is is not visually feasible for no-connects to be directly placed at the associated connector pins, and therefore in those cases there is a short wire between the pin and the no-connect.

This has always been accepted by ERC before, but with the latest nightly build it is flagged as an error. (So I can have dozens of these errors on any given schematic.)

Perhaps this is related to the recent fix for bug #1821342, which also involved wires between component pins and no-connects.
