Kevin O'Connor 654546e338 stepper: Support stepper phase adjustments when homing
Add support for enhancing the precision of endstop switches by also
inspecting the phase of the stepper motor when the endstop triggers.

Kevin O'Connor 92f81d51f4 homing: Move low-level coordinate manipulation to kinematic class
Rework the code so that the kinematic class (currently just
cartesian.py) has more control over the homing process.

Kevin O'Connor 589017a3d6 stepper: Have caller calculate max jerk velocity
Allow the owner of the stepper object to cacluate the maximum step
jerk velocity.  This is used to ensure there is no communication error
between mcu and host.

Disable checking of jerk velocity for extruder stepper motors.

Kevin O'Connor af99ab1645 extruder: Create a new class and python file to track the printer extruder
Create a new python file (extruder.py) to control the extruder heater
and stepper motors.  This separates the extruder control logic from
the cartesian robot code - making it easier to customize both the
kinematic control of the robot as well as the extruder.

Kevin O'Connor 4a527a46ce stepper: Store max_velocity/max_accel instead of max_step_velocity/accel
All users of max_step_velocity and max_step_accel end up multiplying
by step_dist anyway, so it's easier to store max_velocity and
max_accel.

Kevin O'Connor b3e8b430e5 cartesian: Do acceleration and lookahead on requested coordinates
Perform all acceleration calculations and lookahead checks in
millimeters using the cartesian coordinate system of the request.  The
conversion to step coordinates is now done at the time of the step
timing creation.
