Proposal to fix some of the issues with the initial implementation
it is safer to use the status line code to print the message so
there aren't any conflicts in the LCD cursor position.
Allow inserting a byte into any position in the LCD status message
Also, add a variable to control from which index in the array
should the message start printing. This is very useful for progress
bars and messages which continually update. I think we can save some
memory by applying this to Mesh Bed Leveling later.
Change in memory:
Flash: +106 bytes
SRAM: +1 byte
Shouldn't make a difference since the array is already defined as 8B long, but I just found it weird and surprising when I noticed only 7 lines were defined
lcd_encoder was int32_t (4 bytes) because of the menu code
when editing through the menus, the menus only accept
int16_t so it doesnt make sense to use int32_t.

This fixes the spurious feedback when rotating the knob
because lcd_update is called much often than the interval
at which the lcd rendering is updated
Change in memory
Flash: -88 bytes
SRAM: -9 bytes
This commit adds the ability for firmware to make sounds when the
knob is clicked or rotated, when LCD updates are disabled.
The improvement here is the sound is being made with one line of code
whether or not LCD updates are enabled or disabled.

This commit adds the ability for the firmware to dim and wake the
backlight when LCD updates are disabled. Such as in the MMU error screen
or when rendering full screen messages which typically
disable the LCD updates to prevent the status screen from rendering.
Fixes#2777

Used lcd_print_pad_P is some obvious places. We can probably use
this function in more places to further save flash memory
Change in memory:
Flash: -268 bytes
SRAM: 0 bytes
We can use lcd_print_pad to determine
whether the end of the file name was reached
lcd_print_pad now returns the last character pointed to.
If the end of the string was reached, it will be the null delimeter which
evaluates to "false" in an if statment (same as NULL).
Else "true" means the end of the string was not reached.

Flash: -42 bytes
