Only disable the extruder if the last measured temperature is below
the minimum extrude temperature setting. Verifying the target
temperature is not necessary, and it can incorrectly prevent some
valid moves. It's not uncommon for scripts to retract filament
immiedietly after setting the extruder temperature to zero.

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.

Due to minor differences in the extrude ratio, the last end velocity
of the filament may not exactly match the next move's start velocity
of the filament. Implement more precise calculations for pressure
advance to take this into account.

Avoid mixing the travel distance of the head (and its associated
velocity and acceleration) with the distance the filament moves.
Instead, use the filament travel distance.

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.

Rework the timer prioritization code so that is compares against the
current time instead of the number of repeat timers in a given
interrupt. This makes the code slightly faster and it should provide
better protection against task starvation.

The existing code calculates the number of steps in a move and then
spreads them out evenly throughout that move. Change the code so that
step timing is based on where the head is commanded to be relative to
the stepper step locations. This makes the timing more accurate - in
particular the stepper velocities will be more accurate during
cornering introduced by the lookahead code. It also results in
slightly smoother stepper motion which results in better step
compression.

Don't use step_dist for the "distance along the line of movement per

Rename get_homed_position() to get_homed_offset() and return the

can be dependent on the type of kinematics in use, so is inappropriate
