Tool Compensation

The machine simulation accepts a tool compensation length, and GPP2 calculates the length based on the holder, shank and tool lengths.

However, it turns out that with most machines, the tool compensation is not being done on the machine simulator. The variable, MACH_SIM_TOOLCOMP, allows control over that behavior.

If set to TRUE_, GPP2 will apply the tool length compensation by itself, assuming the machine simulation does not do it by itself. If set to FALSE_, GPP2 will rely on the machine simulator to do the tool length compensation.
