Expand: selected symbol instances become their art, as Break Link places it

Browse Source 
Object > Expand with Object on now turns each symbol instance in the
selection, including one in a selected group or in a placed document's
art, into its art, as Break Link to Symbol places it. It goes one level
deep: the instances in that art stay instances. The art keeps the
instance's id and place in the stacking order, and Expand stays one
undo step.

- Instances with effects stay instances, and Expand Appearance bakes
  them as before. Instances with an effect on a fill or stroke,
  instances in perspective, and those in blends, repeats and Intertwine
  groups stay instances.
- The art keeps the instance's opacity mask, as Break Link gives it.
- A hidden or locked instance's art stays hidden or locked.
- A placed document in an instance's art is expanded too.
- When the instances' art would make more than 1,000,000 objects, they
  stay instances, the limit Break Link uses.
- The Fill and Stroke options (object.expand.info, and the Expand
  dialog) count the fills, strokes and gradients in the art of those
  instances, with a dynamic instance's own changes applied. The info
  reports under symbolArt which of them only that art holds, and the
  dialog enables those options only while Object is on.
