EnragedRabbitProject Encoder is difficult to fine tune and sometimes unreliable

[x] replace tcrt5000 sensor PCB with a custom EE-SX1103 based PCB
[x] add a "brake" to prevent the gear to continue spinning when the filament is ejected quickly
[x] flare the return path for the filament to guide "kinked" ends of outrunning filament for endless spool mode

Second batch of PCBs arrived, sadly one last issue spotted, which can be "fixed" by flipping the Sensor to the other side of the board because 2 pins are mixed up on the board.
