Safer support rafts for large parts with inner hollows (oversized rafts can damage printer!)

At the moment it’s an unfair lottery when generating supports on large parts with hollow insides as to whether the raft will be hollow to match or whether the raft will be a solid infill covering the entire outer profile of the part.

The main complaint here is not wasted resin - these large rafts can actually damage the printer, because the suction is so great that the slide mechanism skips - with incredibly loud thunks, and jerking resin trays - which will cause undue wear on the slide drive belt and cog.

See this thread Support rafts are inconsistently filled in... causes peel problems for background with very helpful comments from @mgarrity
