With this change a mechanical or optical switch may be used to check the
availability of the filament and when the filament runs out an M600
(filament change) command is issued. This is only done while printing
with an SD card.
This feature was requested several times (issue #679), but the requests
were not accepted since it was believed that this situation should be
handled at host side. However during an SD print the control is totally
on firmware and I think that during an SD print it should be handled by
the firmware.
The original code was posted at reprap forum
(http://forums.reprap.org/read.php?1,297350) by Lazymonk. I have only
corrected some bugs of the code and improved it by adding definitions to
the configuration.h in order to make it more standardized.
