Currently this is functioning as follows: Additional IO board is found and correctly identified as having two SX1509B chips. Diagnostics reports back:

These changes add the ability to have an additional I/O expander on the Duet 2.
Pin definitions added:
220-235: SX1509b has also added an alias of '0x71'
236-251: SX1509b2 has been added, also with an alias of '0x3F'.
A bug fix was also included related to build errors that occurred when HAS_LINUX_INTERFACE was set to false.
