Use a more advanced chamfer algorithm for stacking_lip

Removes the need for "h_lip" within that function.

Significantly reduces the number of operations.
Which is helpful when importing to FreeCAD.

Future Work:
* Convert chamfer calculations to functions.
* Use those functions to replace "h_lip" with a calculated value.
* Genericize chamfer code to a module.
