export pinnacle plan mlc boundaries is wrong

[KeoJam]

hi,when i use pymedphys._experimental.pinnacle to export the pinnacleplan, i find the LeafPositionBoundaries is write by code in rtplan.py from -200 to 200 ,it is a 60 pairs mlc，but my linac in the pinnacle ,mlc just 40 pairs. i find the linac config in store in plan.Pinnacle.Machines. why not to read the real mlc boundaries from plan.Pinnacle.Machines file? in plan.Pinnacle.Machines file has info like:

Hi @KeoJam, the PinnaclePlan export is known to have some issues with it (this is displayed in a warning message when you run the tool). For our use case we didn't need the plan exported (we are running data mining projects using only the structures and dose) so there wasn't any need to correct these problems with the plan file.

If there is someone who would pick up this task to work on solving the plan module export issues that would be fantastic. But unfortunately this isn't something we have the capacity for.

Hi @pchlap i have fixed the problem by myself. Here is the code,if you need , you can merge it to the project. And i also solved the ds.dosegridscaling length is to long.usually it's length is 11.
code for rtplan&rtdose.zip

I'll take a look this weekend and put together the pull request.

Thanks for your efforts here @KeoJam and @crcrewso! Much appreciated.

@KeoJam
One question came up when reviewing the code, what issue is solved by removing the rounding of DoseGridScaling?
