Add support for an itersolve_set_position() function that sets a
stepper position from a cartesian coordinate. This eliminates the
need for both the python and C code to be able to translate from a
cartesian coordinate to a stepper position.

Calculating the cartesian position from the stepper positions can be
complex and cpu intensive, so rename it to calc_position() to be more
descriptive.

When using multiple micro-controllers it may be necessary to use an id
from /dev/serial/by-path/ instead of /dev/serial/by-id/. Also,
emphasize that in config/example-multi-mcu.cfg.

Change the get_status command to get_clock. Don't report the shutdown
status in the new get_clock command.
The primary purpose of this change is to force the host code to report
a firmware version mismatch with older firmwares as recent changes
(namely the ordering of message block acks) have subtle
incompatibilities if different host/mcu code is used.

It's common for multiple steppers to use the same stepper enable
line. Detect this and only create a single digital_out oid on the
micro-controller.
