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.

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.

Separate out the low-level stepper motor kinematics handling from the
ToolHead class into its own class.

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.
