Both change emitted G-code, which is why they were kept out of the extraction
commit. Both are wrong only where the machine mapping is non-identity, which is
the definition of each bug.

1. Suppress lifts commanded through an unknown position.

_travel_to_z() emits full XYZ whenever the mapping must emit every axis, because
the mapping can make machine Z depend on logical X/Y, and it builds that point
from m_pos. At print start, and after any custom G-code that invalidates
position, m_pos.xy is the uninitialised origin; mapping (0, 0, z) through a
non-identity remap produces a real but wrong machine point -- for a reverse
mapping, build_vol_max, i.e. the far corner of the bed. The subsequent full-XYZ
move corrects the position, but the lift has already commanded a rapid across
the whole bed at travel speed.

Belt kinematics already guarded this; the Cartesian path did not. The guard is
now applied at all three lift sites through must_skip_lift_now(), not just the
one the extraction covered: travel_to_xyz()'s pending-lift branch,
lazy_lift(spiral_vase=true), and eager_lift(). The latter two also needed the
state fix -- both recorded m_lifted = target_lift regardless, so suppressing
only the emission would leave a later unlift() descending from a height that was
never commanded.

2. Never emit a G2/G3 arc a mapping cannot represent.

extrude_arc_to_xy() emitted G2/G3 with logical X/Y and I/J and never consulted
the mapping. There is no general fix by transforming the arc: a permutation
moves it out of the XY plane that I/J describes, a negation reverses handedness,
and the belt shear maps a circle to an ellipse that G2/G3 cannot express at all.

So supports_arc_moves() gates generation through the existing
GCode::should_disable_arc_fitting() hook, and BeltGCode's special-case override
is deleted -- belt now gets the same behaviour from the general rule instead of
its own exception.

supports_arc_moves() is m_remap_x == 0 && m_remap_y == 1, not !has_axis_remap():
an arc emits only X/Y/I/J, so a mapping that merely negates or reverses Z leaves
every emitted word untouched and keeps its arcs.

The fallback for an unrepresentable arc tessellates it into linear segments at a
0.005mm chord tolerance rather than substituting a single chord, and splits dE
proportionally across the segments. The capability check is hoisted above every
extrusion mutation: an earlier form ran it after filament()->extrude(dE) and so
extruded 2*dE on the fallback path.

Known limits of that fallback, since it is worth stating rather than discovering:
emitted relative E is conserved only to per-segment rounding (a radius-5
semicircle with dE=1.5 emits 1.50012 across 36 segments); the 0.005mm bound is a
logical-frame bound, about 0.00855mm in machine space under a 45-degree belt
shear; unequal endpoint radii and non-finite inputs are unchecked. Ordinary
export takes the original polyline when the mapping rejects arcs, so this path
is a fallback rather than the normal route.

Known gap, not claimed fixed: classic wipe towers have their own
enable_arc_fitting and their own G2/G3 emitter in GCode/WipeTower.cpp, which
should_disable_arc_fitting() does not govern. Belt printers are barred from
classic wipe towers; a remapped Cartesian printer is not.

Tests in tests/fff_print/test_gcodewriter.cpp: reverse-X remap with unknown and
with known position plus an identity control; eager_lift emitting nothing and
recording nothing; the arc-capability matrix including the Z-only cases; and the
tessellated fallback. E accounting is asserted through used_filament() rather
than E(), which resets per line in relative-E mode.

OrcaSlicer tests

Building, running and writing tests is documented on the wiki, under How to Test.

Two files here rather than there, because coding agents only read what is in the repository:

  • AGENTS.md is the same guidance in short form, and is what an agent working under tests/ picks up.
  • CATCH2.md is the Catch2 reference, including the mistakes that break a test at runtime.
