gEDA-bug: [Bug 781097] [NEW] gnetlist fails to use inherited refdes= attribute

[Peter Clifton <pcjc2@xxxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

Whilst this is a rare thing to want to do (most symbols have (if any), a
refdes such as "U?" or "C?", I encountered a design at work which failed
to netlist with git HEAD gEDA.

I discovered the refdes had been attached inside the embedded copy of a
symbol, rather than attached as a schematic level attribute of that
symbol.

Since it is conceivable that someone might want a symbol with a refdes
defaulted inside it, we should probably support such usage.
