Kevin O'Connor c552ba06b4 serialqueue: Remove serialqueue_flush_ready()
The serialqueue_flush_ready() code was used to flush queue_step
commands during a homing operation.  It's no longer necessary now that
moves during a homing operation use the normal message priority
system.

Kevin O'Connor 6bd5f4e44e stepcompress: Using normal message priority system during homing
The endstop homing system requires all queue_step commands be in the
MCU's 'move queue' before endstop checking starts.  Use the normal
message priority system to request that stepper queue_step commands
are received prior to the start of the end_stop_home command.  This
simplifies the code and removes the need for special serial queue
flushing.

This also fixes a bug in homing operations that take longer than 2^31
clock ticks.

Kevin O'Connor f46bc0ef04 stepper: Change default max_error from 50us to 25us
Change the default compression error window (max_error) from 50us to
25us - it's common for stepper motor drivers to have 30us for their
"pwm fixed off time" and it would be good for the steps to be
scheduled within that time.

Commit a217c0f3 changed the way the "addfactor" was calculated.

Kevin O'Connor 9c932ad514 delta: Rework delta math to avoid using inv_movexy_r
Taking the inverse of the XY move distance can lead to extremely large
values when the XY distance is very small.  This can lead to
saturation of the double precision variables and incorrect results.

Rework the delta kinematic math to avoid using this inverse.  Pass the
closestxy_d value directly to the C functions so that the C code can
calculate its intermediate constants.

After this change the move_z special case is no longer necessary as
the regular delta functions now work with movexy_r=0 and movez_r=1.

Also, store the stepper name in the stepper class.  Also, propagate

Kevin O'Connor 7554c7f694 stepcompress: Do all step rounding in C code
Commits f0cefebf and 8f331f08 changed the way the code determined what
steps to take on fractional steps.  Unfortunately, it was possible in
some situations for the C code to round differently from the python
code which could result in warnings and lost steps.

Change the code so that all fractional step handling is done in the C
code.  Implementing the step rounding logic in one location avoids any
conflicts.

In order to efficiently handle the step rounding in the C code, the C
code has also been extended to directly send the "set_next_step_dir"
command.

Kevin O'Connor 1dee1ba64e queuelogger: Add support for background log writing
Writing to the debug log can cause an unbounded delay due to disk IO.
This is particularly so on embedded machines such as the Raspberry Pi
that run on SD cards.  These log writing delays can cause problems for
the main processing threads.

The new "queuelogger" code forwards all the main thread log messages
to a queue, and a background thread writes the log messages from the
queue to the destination file.  This eliminates the IO delay from the
main threads.

Kevin O'Connor 5e6127869a mcu: Do not invert the direction of pullup pins by default
A pullup setting on an input pin (ie, '^') should enable the hardware
pullup resistor, but it should not invert the trigger level (ie, it
should remain trigger on high).  Those that need to change the trigger
level (ie, trigger on low) must now do that explicitly (ie, '^!').
This makes the code match what other firmwares do.

Kevin O'Connor 345fc41482 extruder: Don't do pressure advance on velocity changes due to cornering
Due to the lookahead, small changes in the direction of the toolhead
cause minor changes in toolhead velocity.  These "cornering" velocity
changes cause the current extruder code to trigger pressure advance
and its associated pressure retract.  This causes the extruder to
rapidly "jerk" the filament.

This code change updates the extruder to detect velocity changes due
solely to cornering and avoid pressure advance.

Kevin O'Connor 9d7aa1e155 toolhead: Support calculation of cornering minimum and maximum
Calculate the next "cornering" minimum and maximum for each move.  The
"cornering minimum" is the lowest speed the head will reach
immediately after this move (with no interleaving acceleration or
cruising).  The "cornering maximum" is the maximum speed the head will
reach after the cornering minimum (with no interleaving deceleration
or cruising).

These cornering calculations will be helpful in the extruder "pressure
advance" code.
