Draft: Support for UC2 modular optics

Richard Bowman requested to merge uc2_adapter into master

It would be super to be able to use the various modular microscope optics configurations provided by UC2 with the OpenFlexure Microscope. This branch introduces a version of the bucket base that allows a UC2 cube assembly to be coupled to the microscope. It's far from finished. Things to do:

  • Redesign bucket base to accommodate the UC2 modules
  • Adjust dimensions so the UC2 modules actually fit
  • Add screw holes for mounting the UC2 baseplate
  • Add an optics module that holds an objective, but doesn't have any additional optics underneath
  • Optimise the design to get the objective closer to the first UC2 cube
  • Add the UC2 adapter to the build script
