It is possible to restart the host software with a RESTART command
after manually resetting the micro-controller.

Add a "restart" gcode command that will cause the host "klippy"
software to reload its config and restart.

The set_printer_ready() method can be called from a background thread.
Have the main Printer class call a new dump_debug() method in the main
thread on a shutdown event.

Check that all options specified in the config file are valid. This
catches possible typos and spelling errors in variable names that have
a default.

Add helper function that ensures a config option is one of several
choices. This helps ensure that a proper error is raised if an
invalid choice is made.

Use the greenlet mechanism to wait for the connection to come up in
the serial connect() method. This simplifies the calling code.

Setup the reactor and run the MCU connection code as a timer within
the reactor. The connection code will make use of reactor greenlets
so that it can wait for events during the connection phase.

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.

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.
