Are there a way to set a extrude length on unload filament macro? #118

This is the spot where the _LOAD_UNLOAD macro extrudes a small amount of filament before performing the full unload:

G1 E3.0 F{SPEED}

There are other places in the code like this, with small extrusions or retractions (e.g. to reduce ooze when parking). I've considered switching it all over to a single value controlled by a configuration parameter, because on my own machines I have some volcano nozzles that could use a bit more retraction to avoid oozing. I'm just not sure if a single value would work for all cases, or if the added configuration complexity is warranted.
