Add grouping for LEDs for use as separate chain on a single gpio

[Elenedeath]

I reused the code made by julianschill one year ago on this pull request #5788 and correct something KevinOConnor say about raise self.printer.config_error() maybe now the pull request by accepted.

for the short description made by julianschill

This adds the functionality to create groups of LEDs to either separate a chain or combine multiple chains to one big LED chain.

Configuration made by me and use on my BLV MGN Cube:

[neopixel _status_panel]
pin: PD3
chain_count: 48
color_order: GRB
initial_RED: 0.0
initial_GREEN: 0.0
initial_BLUE: 0.0

[led_group status_panel1]
leds:
  _status_panel (1-16)

[led_group status_panel2]
leds:
  _status_panel (17-32)

[led_group status_panel3]
leds:
  _status_panel (33-48)

I use this script https://github.com/Elenedeath/klipper-neopixel to have a working panel with 3 different information on it. this is a little video to show it in action https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7i_VIg28kKw

this is my start gcode:

  M117 Heating bed...
  _NEOPIXEL_DISPLAY LED=status_panel3 TYPE=bed_temp MODE=progress NUMBERS=16
  M190 S{params.BED_TEMP|default(printer.heater_bed.target, true)  }; wait for bed to heat up
  M117 Heating extruder...
  _NEOPIXEL_DISPLAY LED=status_panel2 TYPE=extruder_temp MODE=progress NUMBERS=16
  M109 S{params.EXTRUDER_TEMP|default(printer.extruder.target, true) }; wait for extruder to heat up
  M117 Printing...
  _NEOPIXEL_DISPLAY LED=status_panel1 TYPE=print_percent MODE=progress NUMBERS=16

and i can chain another neopixel without the need to specific another gpio for it, only need a new group.

on this example, i have status_panel1 for print_percent, status_panel2 for extruder_temp and status_panel3 for bed_temp

ps: i closed and reopen a new pr like this all my commits are signed off correctly #6445

Thank you for picking this up again and fixing the issue of the original PR. I would really like this feature to be merged to Klipper. I am completely fine with reusing the code from the original PR for this one. Let me know if I can be of any help.
