Advice users to issue a FIRMWARE_RESTART command on a printer shutdown
event, and remove support for CLEAR_SHUTDOWN. A full mcu reset is
preferable and it simplifies the interface.

Extend the FIRMWARE_RESTART command so that it can use the firmware
"reset" command instead of the "arduino" mechanism.

Also, update the default optimization level of c_helper.so to O2 to

Calculate where a tower must reverse direction during a move in the C
code instead of the delta.py kinematic code. This simplifies the
python code.

The delta code calculates a "virtual tower" along the line of
movement. Rework the variable names and comments to make it clear
that this is occurring.
It is not necessary to pass the start_pos variable to the C code as it
is simple to update the start_pos at the start of each movement.

It's not necessary to have separate C delta kinematic functions for
constant acceleration and constant velocity as constant velocity can
be obtained by using a constant acceleration of zero.
Signed-off-by: Kevin O'Connor <kevin@koconnor.net>
Update the C delta kinematic code to take velocity and acceleration
directly in step distances and clock ticks. This simplifies the
mcu.py python code as it only needs to do unit and axis conversion.

Update the set_position() method to convert from millimeters to
absolute step position.
Also, update PrinterStepper.get_homed_offset() and
mcu_stepper.get_commanded_position() to return millimeters.

Now that the kinematic classes call the mcu_stepper with millimeters
and seconds it is no longer necessary for them to directly access the
stepper's position in absolute steps. Rename
mcu_stepper.commanded_position to mcu_stepper._commanded_pos to make
clear it is not a variable intended to be externally accessed.

The relax option corrupts the compilation on at least some versions of
gcc/binutils (eg, on fedora's avr-gcc 6.2.0 / binutils 2.27) due to
corruption of switch tables that use jump offsets. This issue is also
the root cause that resulted in commit d67f962a. Since the --relax
option provides minimal size / performance improvements it can simply
be dropped.

Commmit a1c61563 renamed timer_shutdown() to timer_reset() but
neglected to delete timer_shutdown().
Signed-off-by: Kevin O'Connor <kevin@koconnor.net>
Commit 16e3dbb1 changed the avr implementation of timer_read_time().
Unfortunately, it raised the possibility for timer_read_time() to be
out of sync with the scheduler's understanding of the current time.
In particular, it was common for the timer irq to overflow the 16bit
hardware counter once at startup, and this would lead to
timer_read_time() always returning a time ~4ms ahead of the scheduler
on 16Mhz chips. This resulted in "Move queue empty" errors.
To resolve this issue, only increment timer_high from timer_periodic()
and make sure the timer irqs start immediately after timer_init().
