I have added missing-tooth index to the software encoder (only in master).

This opens up a number of large-bore encoder options, as this is the
scheme used on crankshaft trigger wheels.

options:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334076379341 (cheaper, but needs modification)
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/313025151085 (poly-vee pulley included)

I haven't tested it on a lathe yet, or even driving a stepper to see
if the missing teeth cause a stutter.

Any volunteers? My own lathe uses a resolver on the spindle.
