Grigori Goronzy 0a20430e07 serial: Add Fysetc Cheetah board specific reset sequence
Fysetc Cheetah v1.2 boards require a special sequence to reset reliably.
This sequence works for me in all cases. Simpler sequences without
double reset did not work correctly. This is likely because of a weird
stateful circuitry for toggling the bootloader state.

Cheetah boards use RTS to configure bootloader triggering. By default,
pySerial sets RTS on connect, which unfortunately configures the board
to start the bootloader on reset.

Add a toggle for the RTS state to allow users to workaround. The RTS state
is set before the serial connection is opened, so there are no glitches.

Addresses #2026.

Justin Schuh 93f1e6dd86 FAN: Kick start fan when the increase is more than 50% (#2085)
Large increases in fan speed can suffer from acceleration lag, so this
change kick starts the fan for a change of 50% or more in the same way
that starting the fan from 0% does.

Nicholas Seckar 004edb9613 fan: Add off_below option for fans (#1897)
Below off_below the fan will be turned off. When configured correctly this
can prevent stalling, which may lead to overheating and failed fans. To
simplify calibration and use of this setting, off_below is applied in the
input duty cycle domain, prior to any scaling due to e.g. max_power.

Some users increase max_extrude_cross_section to avoid issues with
some slicers.  However, increasing that value also increases the
defaults for the max_extrude_only parameters which is not obvious.
Base the max_extrude_only defaults only on the configured nozzle
diameter.

Andy Silverman b22a81cd34 heater: Added config for heater PWM cycle time.
Added the pwm_cycle_time option for heater config sections.  Defaults
to previous value of 0.100 seconds, but may be reduced to shorter times
at the expense of MCU workload and possible MOSFET heating, depending on
controller design.  Some printers that need bed PID to be enabled,
notably the Felixprinters series, are known to benefit from shorter
cycle times, as the default 10hz rate results in excessive voltage
supply droop.

While this option can be used on extruder heaters as well, there
is not expected to be any particular benefit from doing so unless
the extruder heater presents a particularly large load.
