Hanif Koh 81357695c5 Verify WipeTower Footprint at Point of Generation
The clamps and validation work from estimates. Once the tower is
generated, _make_wipe_tower re-tests the exact first-layer footprint,
brim and cone base included, against the printable area and the
exclusion zone, so an off-plate tower fails with a clear error instead
of exporting unprintable G-code. The rectangle-wall mesh footprint
learns the Type2 cone base so that check and the post-generation
validation see the real outline.

Pre-generation, validation hard-checks the body plus an explicit brim
and warns on the estimated auto brim and cone base with the existing
"may collide" strings, so the user hears about a marginal position on
the first slice rather than only at generation time.

Two fff_print fixtures that print a tower at the default position move
it onto the 200 mm test bed, as the multifilament fixtures already do:
the shipped default y of 220 is off that bed, and the backstop now says
so instead of exporting the tower.
