Many people won't have KiCAD installed to view the schematic. I've plotted a schematic into PDF format for those cases.

Also added a .gitignore line for an empty file which has been bugging me.

I am not a maintainer of this repo, but, trying to participate reviewing anyway.

From a technical point of view: Thumbs up from me. This should make the schematics more accessible, and seem to have been generated from what I think is the correct file (vera-module-rev4.sch).

From a legal point of view: Can there be some "copyright" issue with making a derived pdf more accessible on the internet? I mean, the data is already there (pcb/rev4/vera-module-rev4.sch, which maybe is open-sourced), but, this is kind-of something new. I am not a lawyer, thus, would it make sense to double-check with Frank that we can publish this generated pdf file (based on his work) in this repo?
