"Dragon Tongue" rigid mount adapter from the Dragon Hotend to the Prusa Bear extruder

The Dragon Tongue - can be screwed to the Trianglelab Dragon Hotend V2.0 and used in the place of a standard E3D prusa V6.

The adapter allowsone handed nozzle changing due to the Y-shaped "tongue" that fits the extruder cover shape and stops the hot end rotating.

The adapter is designed to work with the bear extruder https://guides.bear-lab.com/c/95jghwzvw9l46s3g and inspired by the design for a hard mount link from @SugaryPlumbs https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/48067-mk3s-bear-rigid-mount-for-tl-dragon-hotend

The adapter uses the screws that are supplied with hot end by Trianglelab.

Development:

current version takes a PTFE tube but not the cuff and clip that holds the tube.
