A new variable was introduced to allow fan animation on the GLCD.
Add additional float to string conversion routine without sign
character. This is used for the coordinates visualisation on the GLCD.

2. Status screen symbols 3 Extruders, heated bed, animated fan logo 1
3. Status screen symbols 3 Extruders, heated bed, animated fan logo 2
The extruder offset can be specified in the configuration
file or adjusted on the fly using the "M218 T# X# Y#" command.
The EEPROM support is not yet merged in.
The "T#" command can take option "F#" that specifies the feedrate
at which the printing head should be re-positioned. If not
specified the re-positioning move is not preformed immediately,
but the coordinates are adjusted for the printer to properly
position the head when the next movement happens.
Also skip .files and _files with long filenames. I think its better than before. If somebody dislikes it, or wants additional configuration, it can be done in a future step. Thanks, Marius, and nice to have you helping!
[default off for now]
syntax: M600 X[pos] Y[pos] Z[relative lift] E[initial retract] L[later retract distance for removal]
if enabled, after a M600, the printer will retract by E, lift by Z, move to XY, retract even more filament.
Oh, and it will display "remove filament" and beep like crazy.
You are then supposed to insert a new filament (other color, e.g.) and click the display to continue.
After having the nozzle cleaned manually, aided by the disabled e-steppers.
After clicking, the printer will then go back the whole shebang, and continue printing with a fancy new color.
Add a feature to run the cooling fan at full speed for a small period
(default 100ms) when first starting the fan. Some fans wont reliably
start spinning at low power, and many fans have issue with the PWM at
low power. However, once the fan starts spinning it can reliably be
set to a wide range of PWM values.
