LiFePO4 support #15

In order to support this different cell chemistry, we should consider:

Mechanical concerns, how big LiFePO4 cells in their typical sizes are we able to fit,
A separate 3S1P and 3S2P PCBs with appropriate pack protection (different voltage and current limits)
Additional options in AVR Firmware (different target voltage of a charger)

Personally I don't plan on using LiFePO4 cells, so everyone is welcome to contribute to this effort.

I am interest in LiFePO4 support and will work on the mechanical and electrical issues.
