Flakey -- sometimes shows time to filament change, sometimes doesn't #43

I am finding that the module does not consistently detect filament changes. For example I printed one GCODE generated in Prusa Slicer and it showed up ok. Then I printed essentially the same GCODE but with the filament change moved to one layer higher and it failed to show any time to filament change.

I don't know bout prusa slicer, but for Cura, I simply had to remove the carrot ^ from the regex and UI sections and it displays both duration and time pretty accurately.

Update. More testing.

Changed regex to "^M600|M600" to look for both the carrot and to, and seems to work.

started the exact same file printing, and was not giving an estimate or the time again.. with this change, it seemed to find and show both again.
