Added system parameter _tool_table_size, 0 if a tool table is not enabled.
Removed dependency on safety door input for parking settings: $41, $42, $56-$59, $392 and $393.
Removed strict dependency on spindle encoder input for spindle synced motion,
allows the use of the stepper spindle which has an implicit encoder.
Added core on_spindle_at_speed event. This must be verified with actual VFD spindles, I only have a simulator available.
Improved handling of "iterated" settings, can now be fully implemented by plugins.
Added HAL support for setting serial stream format.
Added setting $681 for configuring Modbus RTU stream parity, available when the underlying driver supports format setting.
Changed $I NEWOPT "ATC" element to ATC=1 when ATC is online and ATC=0 when offline.
For macro based ATC code this is set to ATC=0 if tc.macro is not found and the new $675 flag is set.
Named system parameters _current_pocket and _selected_pocket updated to return the correct values.
Moved handling of keeping last tool number over reboot from template plugin to the core.
Added named system parameters _homed_state and _homed_axes.
Fix for failure to claim auxiliary ports in some configurations.
Added $MODBUSSTATS and $MODBUSSTATS=R commands, outputs communication statistics such as number of sent commands, retries etc.
$MODBUSSTATS=R clears the statistics after outputting it.
Ref. issue #753.
Moved inbuilt G65 macros to the core and added macro G65P5Q<n> for selecting probe.
Added probe id to real time report: |P:<n> will be reported on probe select when more than one probe is available.
Fix for WCO and Ov real time status report elements not beeing reported as they should in some circumstances.
Added G30 as optional position for tool change.
Moved new tool change mode from PR#673 to $346 - Tool change options.
Moved Modbus RTU code from spindle plugin to the core.
Fixed bug in delayed task handler, might occasionally hang the controller.
these instead of calling via hal.port functions or accessing hal.port properties.
Improved the ioports API, updated core code to make use of it.
Flagged some calls and (part of) some stuctures as deprecated.
Added '$709' setting for second PWM spindle when available - PWM options.
Added properties to PWM spindles to allow "overdriving" PWM output when _RPM controls spindle enable signal is enabled with '$9' or '$709'.
Optimized Modbus CRC calculation, may fix issue with a compiler generating different code compared to most others. Ref. issue #723.
Added HAL parameter for minimum step pulse length set by driver, used for validation of $0 setting.
Changed HAL API signature for outputting step pulses, optimized to allow drivers to only change direction outputs when there is an actual direction change.
Improved handling of overrides at end of program when all motion is buffered. Possible fix for issue #714.
Some optimizations to allow higher step rates.
