Incorrect scaling for THT diode models about kicad-footprints

[SchrodingersGat]

This is actually quite wide spread:

• Footprints with incorrect scale - 701
• Footprints with incorrect offset - 339
• Footprints with incorrect rotate - 341

I can change these simply but it will break a lot of 3D models!

Do so ... but we were discussing whether these should be reworked as a hole to improve on the polarity marking on SilkS (see #78 ... maybe you can give your five cents there, so we can move forward) ... When we do that I will also change the scaling (and reexport my 3D models accordingly)

Wrongly scaled 3d models will not be included in the v5 repo. (Yes i know this will mean we do not have 3d models for some parts when v5 comes out.)

Changing the scaling here would only affect the v5 footprints so i think we can fix the scaling here.

[jkriege2]

Yes, but it would be good to know WHICH fooprints are affected, otherwise we will never know which models to fix!

So I would vote for doing this in batches: I.e. someone takes a repo, fixes tha scaling and at the same time fixes the 3D models, or removes them!

@jkriege2 yes I think this is a good idea. I'll close my "fix" for this :)

[poeschlr]

@jkriege2 the models that need fixing are simply the models present in the old kicad-library repo that do not have a counterpart in kicad-packages3d. (Sadly for a lot of them there is no easy fix because they have been designed with wings3d.)

Edit: I also think a lot of the footprints that have the wrong scaling might not even have any 3d model in either library. (They might simply stem from a time before our new ideas about correctly scaled 3d models came along.)

@poeschlr in that case, I will re-open my PR to fix this. It is better to fix the files now and add the models as we go, I think. If there are no existing incorrect models, I think that is fine.
