Ignore ‘Tool on’ command for arcs

The Tool on command is specified as PD and this is normally output with each line and arc command. However, some plotters do not require this command to be included with an arc as the arc command automatically switches the tool on. This can be a particular problem with sample makers, as it can cause the tool head to move down, up and then down again at the start of each arc.
