Updated variable spindle and new probing. Minor bug fixes.

Browse Source 
- Minor bug fix for variable spindle PWM output. Values smaller than
the minimum RPM for the spindle would overflow the PWM value. Thanks
Rob!

- Created an optional minimum spindle PWM low-mark value as a
compile-time option. This is for special circumstances when the PWM has
to be at a certain level to be read by the spindle controller.

- Refactored the new probing commands (G38.3, G38.4, G38.5) code to
work better with the rest of Grbl’s systems.

- Refactored mc_probe() and mc_arc() to accept the mode of the command,
i.e. clockwise vs counter, toward vs away, etc. This is to make these
functions independent of gcode state variables.

- Removed the pull off motion in the probing cycle. This is not an
official operation and was added for user simplicity, but wrongly did
so. So bye bye.

- Created a configure probe invert mask function to handle the
different probe pin setting and probing cycle modes with a single mask.

 - Minor bug fix with reporting motion modes via $G. G38.2 wasn’t
showing up. It now does, along with the other new probing commands.

- Refactored some of the new pin configurations for the future of Grbl.
