Integrated Half Bridge PCB Schematic Revisions

Here is a revision to my schematics where I run the trace that I had been running under the IC chip instead going around everything to avoid going under the IC chip and the problems that creates. This creative rerouting of that trace also meant I had to get clever with my other traces to compensate and so I had to have one trace jump over another trace at one point and to do this I used a 0 ohm resistor as a jumper bridge to cross over with. In addition to these changes, I also moved the capacitors a bit more away from the chip and eachother to prevent short circuiting from sloppy soldering issues and also just make it easier to work with in general. Also, since the chip had come off the PCB in one corner, I decided I should beef up the number of connections to the chip's outer pads onto my PCB so I added several more attachment points which will help secure the chip to the PCB way better now.
