Add tools to control peristaltic pumps/dispense heads developed for color mixing demo.

These tools should be extensible to any combination of stepper-driven peristaltic pump and toolhead dispenser tool. Currently driving the pumps requires having an active dispenser toolhead, b/c peristaltic pumps are an inherently un-homed motion axis and the only way I can find to manage this on Duet is with an 'E' axis, which requires the associated tool to be active to 'extrude'. Future nice-to-have would be to break apart pump and dispense tool functionality, so that pumps can do things not related to toolhead tools.
