If the stepper phases are known then it is possible to arrange for the
0.0 position to occur at a full step. On cartesian style printer,
this makes it possible for the Z levels to occur at full steps (which
may help reduce "Z ribbing").

Don't discard samples that are less than 500us from the prediction
regardless of the prediction variance. Also, don't use the prediction
variance in the external time estimate.

Implement a "moving" linear regression between the reported mcu clock
and the sent_time of the get_status message that generated that
report. Use this linear regression to make predictions on the
relationship between the system time and the mcu clock.

Revert commit f37fc775. It is not valid to pass a conservative
frequency to serialqueue.set_clock_est() as that function may not be
called for extended periods - a too low frequency would eventually
lead to "Timer too close" mcu errors.
Instead, increase the 1ms time offset to 5ms to avoid corner cases
that could lead to a message arriving too soon.

Update the homing code to pass in the start of the homing operation to

Accuracy is not as important as ensuring a message is never sent
before it can be received in the serialqueue code. So, use the
smallest frequency ever seen and add the minimum rtt time when setting
set_clock_est().

Use baud_adjust when determining the receive_time of a message read
from the serial port. This improves the accuracy of the clock
synchronization code.

Instead of tracking the minimum frequency ever observed, attempt to
track the actual frequency of the micro-controller (relative to the
host clock). This improves the stability of the secondary mcu clocks
when multiple mcus are configured.

Now that the print_time is always synchronized with the mcu_time,
there is no longer a need to track mcu_time as a separate quantity.
