loop_sdcard: Add loopable SD card file sections
To support continuous belt printing, add nestable repeat loop support via an `[sdcard_loop]` module. Supported G-Code: - SDCARD_LOOP_BEGIN COUNT=n ; Loop for N times, or infinitely if N is 0 - SDCARD_LOOP_END ; End of loop - SDCARD_LOOP_DESIST ; Complete all loops without iterating Marlin M808 compatibility example in `config/sample-macros.cfg`: - M808 Ln ; Loop for N times, or infinitely if N is 0 - M808 ; End of loop - M808 K ; Complete all loops without iterating Added unit tests in test/klippy/sdcard_loop.test See https://reprap.org/wiki/G-code#M808:_Set_or_Goto_Repeat_Marker Signed-off-by: Jason S. McMullan <jason.mcmullan@gmail.com>

+## [sdcard_loop]
+
+Some printers with stage-clearing features, such as a part ejector or
+a belt printer, can find use in looping sections of the sdcard file.
+(For example, to print the same part over and over, or repeat the
+a section of a part for a chain or other repeated pattern).
+
+See the `config/sample-macros.cfg` file for a Marlin compatible M808
+G-Code macro.
