Makita RT0700C speed control hack for marlin

Here’s what we have.
There is some speculation that bypassing router speed controls might be as simple removing the hardware and grabbing the two wires off the motor, but I don’t think anyone has gone that far. Also, just to be clear, I think it’s probably not necessary to cut at anything less than full speed unless you’re working on plastics/acrylics and switch back and forth to metals/wood.
It’s a cool feature to have, but might not add much to your productivity (if that matters).
