Original Prusa MINI Enclosure - side doors

My first ugly iteration

I had to squeeze printer with an enclosure to the closet with limited depth and sliding doors, also I've been using Mini rotated that way for over a year now, so I decided to also adjust the enclosure.

Original Prusa MINI Enclosure - Side Doors Mod:
- raise feet to hide power supply and other things
- rotate enclosure so that left side is now a front face
- 'front door' will be used to feed the filament, as seen on the screen, in the future I need to add magnet coupler there and magnets so it will not separate from the metal wall.
- 'left door' will be used to access the printer as seen on the screen - added handles with magnets and nylon screws with bolts at the bottom for easier door alignment - in general there will be more on this in the future, for now there is a 5mm gap that can be later filled with a foam or something
Probably in the future I will replace side panel with something else because it is quite thin and wobbles, and something like a thicker material would be more useful (similar to front doors)

- make an encasing for the electronics (because it is a nightmare now)
- replace leds with different ones
- add filtration in the future and other 'smart' things.

Added PTFE magnetic coupler in the place of the normal door handle (instead of the mechanical lock).

Added Temeperature Humidity sensor to make it possible to hang it on the side (the holes are wider).
