fix(imex): give the printing head its second-layer temperature in parallel modes

The IMEX branch of the 1st->2nd layer temperature transition is mutually
exclusive with the standard per-extruder path in its `else`, but it skipped the
head carrying the print's own toolpaths on the premise that "the standard
per-extruder temp path already addresses it". That path is the `else` branch and
never runs for a parallel mode, so the printing head received no transition at
all and held nozzle_temperature_initial_layer for the entire job.

Emit for every carriage the mode drives, the printing one included. The printing
head takes this layer's own filament; the parallel carriages, which carry no
toolpaths of their own, keep resolving through the per-plate head map with pem
inversion as the fallback. The lookup now goes through get_filament_config_index()
like the standard path, since a variant-expanded printer gives a filament its own
column and a raw index would read the wrong one.

Reproduced on a 4-carriage IQEX in copy mode: the only temperature command in the
whole file set the idle secondary carriage to the value it already had, while the
head doing the printing never left its first-layer temperature. The defect is
invisible whenever initial and regular temperatures match, which is why earlier
per-tool validation passed.

Tests cover both gantry counts, since the active set comes from the mode's tool
roster: an IDEX copy mode drives two carriages, an IQEX mode drives four, and the
IQEX case asserts a first-layer filament and a second-layer transition for each of
the four.
