Disable motors when not in use #3

...and leave the fan on for a while after aborting a print.

When you abort or stop a print the stepper-motors don't disengage. But the fan are not on, this leads to the extruder motor heating up and the filaments in the printer heating up and melting and consequently clogging the extruder.

I've just re-checked the behavior and when an sd print is aborted the stepper-motors are engaged and the fans are spinning. Please elaborate what's happening. Meanwhile I found and fixed a bug that prevented disengaging of motors when aborting.

I'll double check the fans.

Great that the motors disengage now :)
