Planner: lazy-load camotics.gplan so HTTP listener comes up first

Importing camotics.gplan pulls in a C++ extension (libstdc++,
boost::python, etc.) which adds several seconds to bbctrl startup
on the Pi. Defer it to Planner.init() — bbctrl can serve the UI
and accept connections without ever touching the planner, and the
penalty is paid only the first time motion is queued.
