Some "clone" devices do not support `touch_mode` and as a result the
`QUERY_PROBE` command does not work. Despite this, it may still be
possible to perform probing and homing with these devices. On these
devices the `QUERY_PROBE` command during the

subsequent `G28` (or `PROBE`) test does succeed. It may be possible to
use these "clone" devices with Klipper if one does not utilize the
