DB9 connector is wrongly named/pin 1 marked

In DB9 connector, there is a DB9-male but not DB-9 female. Also, in DB-9 male, the square pin (which should be pin 1) is pin 5, leading to confusion. I modded the library for the correct position and created a pair of new DB9 connectors which are cut to be smaller (I use it a lot, and see it a lot on the net). Feel free to add to the main library.

I think I am seeing this too... the female DB9 is OK, but the male one is backwards...

Thanks for the file TabajaraLabs. Yours looks correct.

Hi @TabajaraLabs / @GitRayman ,
It has only taken us four years (!) but this issue has now been fixed - in this commit.
Thanks for identifying this problem,
Paul
