Add M73 for Completion percentage UX #5

@garethky

Description

@garethky

M73 sets the print time remaining and completion %.

For now I've just set this to 100% at the end of the print which at least makes the UI happy.

A 1/2 way solution would be to add M73 after each chunk of the print with an arbitrary percentage based on a best guess.

A complete solution would involve doing 2 passes over the gcode, one to compute all of moves and another to work out the % of completed moves at every M73 point. This would mean converting from a string accumulator to an object array so it could be traversed a second time.
