Add Footprint Naming convention twice. 

IPC-7351B For SMD, and IPC-7352 for through-hole. 

Right now we can only select one or the other.

When someone picks the IPC-7351B naming convention in Options, the through-hole parts automatically get IPC-7352 footprint names for through-hole.

There’s only one Footprint Naming Convention for through-hole. 

When you select IPC-7351B Footprint Naming Convention, it only affects Surface Mount component families. 

The Through-hole naming convention is always there and available in IPC-7352 standard.

There is only one Footprint Naming Convention for Through-hole parts. 

The IPC-7351B Naming Convention only applies to Surface Mount. 

The Through-hole Naming convention was created 20 years ago and finally released in IPC-7352, but it's been in Footprint Expert since 2012.
