Feature Request: Add MAX RPM to Tool table. #2949

Add a MAX RPM to the tool table, along with internal interlocks that prevent the spindle from exceeding the set RPM. This would be a great safety addition for large fly cutters, face mills etc. Also would be good for things that don't need to turn such as probes, camera's, drag knifes or anything else that shouldn't spin. This should limit the speed in Auto/MDI/Manual. Hass as recently introduced this feature into their controls.

I have a branch that does this, but needs some cleanup.

Sounds like a useful feature :+1:
