Accelerometer feature

JLC now shows over 17k components in stock that are for the Hellen board footprint. While the hardware is there, we do not have firmware support that i can see. I would like to start the process of testing these and implementing the feature. This is to start discussion of what needs to happen and the scope of what can be done.

Part # LIS2DW12TR
jlc # C189624

Status update: no time to look into this :(

At some point whatever accelerometer discovery has was working, hellen boards have a different one - did not have time to see if by any chance those are compatible. https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/issues/4870 https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/issues/473

Major progress - pictured 4chan board.

Looks like vertical is confused? https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/issues/5809

Would we need to implement some fancy logic to account for ECU mounting position?

I think we are trying to reinvent the wheel here. My idiot's perspective as a guy that wires up race bikes/race cars for a living, is we are leaving to many variables to chance for example ecu mounted properly then if not mounted properly adjusting offsets so the internal accelerometer reads "true".

My proposed solution, program native CAN integration into rusefi for a pre-existing bosch IMU unit that tracks 6-Axis. With this user has to only mount a small unit properly, also will help to have if rusefi decides to add traction control as a native feature.
IMU I am playing with on the bench below

We already support some https://rusefi.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=42482#p42482 pretty much the approach is to support both approaches
