Kevin O'Connor 459695e9d7 docs: Remove items from Todo.md
Several items were recently implemented.  Remove the "cubic vs
quadratic" item as investigations into cubic compression weren't
promising.

Kevin O'Connor 8d0ef49e8f toolhead: Permit look-ahead between Z moves
Extend the look-ahead mechanism to work between moves that contain Z
movement.  This improves Klipper's handling of g-code produced in
"vase mode".

Kevin O'Connor 0adea120cd pru: Compile the irq_poll() function with -O2 optimization
Compile the PRU binary with -Os optimization, but request that the
timer dispatch code be compiled with -O2 optimization.  This improves
the performance of timers slightly.

Kevin O'Connor 71bb7acb8e pru: Compile with -Os instead of -O2
The gcc -Os option significantly reduces the size of the PRU binary

Kevin O'Connor 3af87e1c42 avr: Add SIMULAVR build option; don't show WATCHDOG or SERIAL_BAUD_U2X
Add a CONFIG_SIMULAVR option to the Kbuild menus and don't directly
prompt users for CONFIG_WATCHDOG or CONFIG_SERIAL_BAUD_U2X.  The only
reason to disable these options would be if one were running on
simulavr.  This simplifies the user visible menu options.

Also, only show CONFIG_CLEAR_PRESCALER for at90usb1286 chips.
