This PR makes it possible to define an extruder config section without an extruder stepper motor. This may be useful for dual hotend systems that share a single stepper motor.
A bit unrelated, but I'm also added a commit here that removes the default for the "extruder" parameter of
[extruder_stepper]
config sections. With the recent extruder changes, I suspect that the default of synchronizing all extruder_stepper motors to the "extruder" motion queue is confusing. So, after this PR, users will be required to specify the "extruder" parameter of[extruder_stepper]
config sections (either by setting it to something likeextruder: extruder
to set the default motion queue or set it asextruder:
to not set a default motion queue at startup).@DrumClock - fyi.
