Added OPTION_ALLOW_ROTATIONAL_AND_CONFIGURATION_CMDS_AT_BOOT_UP which is disabled by default.  By default the controller will ignore at boot up GS-232 commands that start rotation or change the configuration.
        Related setting (new): ROTATIONAL_AND_CONFIGURATION_CMD_IGNORE_TIME_MS 5000   (ignore commands the first 5 seconds after boot up)

     All library files should be placed in directories likes \sketchbook\libraries\library1\ , \sketchbook\libraries\library2\ , etc.
     Anything rotator_*.* should be in the ino directory!
