Create the QueryEndstops in the gcode handler instead of in the
kinematic classes. This simplifies the gcode handler as it can
directly register its response callback.
Also, store the stepper name in the stepper class. Also, propagate
the print_time of the query request to the mcu_endstop class.

Automatically reset the next step time to zero on a stepper_stop()
call. This makes the host code simpler as it no longer needs to
schedule an explicit reset_step_clock command on the step after a
homing operation.

Commits f0cefebf and 8f331f08 changed the way the code determined what
steps to take on fractional steps. Unfortunately, it was possible in
some situations for the C code to round differently from the python
code which could result in warnings and lost steps.
Change the code so that all fractional step handling is done in the C
code. Implementing the step rounding logic in one location avoids any
conflicts.
In order to efficiently handle the step rounding in the C code, the C
code has also been extended to directly send the "set_next_step_dir"
command.

Writing to the debug log can cause an unbounded delay due to disk IO.
This is particularly so on embedded machines such as the Raspberry Pi
that run on SD cards. These log writing delays can cause problems for
the main processing threads.
The new "queuelogger" code forwards all the main thread log messages
to a queue, and a background thread writes the log messages from the
queue to the destination file. This eliminates the IO delay from the
main threads.

Invert the default meaning of the stepper direction pin. Instead of
treating a low value as position motion, treat a high value as
positive motion. This matches what other firmwares do, and it matches
what common stepper motor drivers document.

A pullup setting on an input pin (ie, '^') should enable the hardware
pullup resistor, but it should not invert the trigger level (ie, it
should remain trigger on high). Those that need to change the trigger
level (ie, trigger on low) must now do that explicitly (ie, '^!').
This makes the code match what other firmwares do.

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

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.

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