If a heater falls out of the target range, accumulate the temperature
differences to determine if an error should be raised. This should
make it less likely to report an error for heaters that drift slightly
out of range, and it should make error reporting faster for heaters
that rapidly fall out of range.

Don't use tiny step distances on the Z as that could cause a surprise
to users that copy the config without updating all the settings. (A Z
step distance that is too small would cause a high motor velocity.) A
step distance of .0025 is very popular in practice, so change the
default example configs to use that.

Added the pwm_cycle_time option for heater config sections. Defaults
to previous value of 0.100 seconds, but may be reduced to shorter times
at the expense of MCU workload and possible MOSFET heating, depending on
controller design. Some printers that need bed PID to be enabled,
notably the Felixprinters series, are known to benefit from shorter
cycle times, as the default 10hz rate results in excessive voltage
supply droop.
While this option can be used on extruder heaters as well, there
is not expected to be any particular benefit from doing so unless
the extruder heater presents a particularly large load.

pullup resistor, but it should not invert the trigger level (ie, it
