Presently, stepconf only considers step rate when choosing BASE_PERIOD.
Ideally, PWM output and spindle encoder input would also figure into the
calculation.  I'm happy to take a look at patches intended to improve
this.  Look for 'def ideal_period' in stepconf.py for the place to add
these calculations.
