Interstitial Firmware Releases

Here is firmware 0.84.2. I would like to make this a full release, but since I haven’t had time to test it yet I’d like to put it here for feedback. The credit for all of the changes here go to @dlang

The changes in this firmware are primarily aimed at accuracy improvements.

There are two changes.

1st - This firmware now adds math which accounts for the Maslow4 belt not being angled over the entire distance. The arms extend out a little before the belt begins to slope. This is particularly important when cutting close to the top left corner.

2nd - We were not correctly projecting the belt lengths into the XY plane when doing calibration. This firmware fixes that.

BOTH index.html.gz and the firmware need to be updated to get the benefits of this update, and calibration needs to be run.

I would love to hear feedback from anyone who tries it out.
