harrierpigeonandClaude Fable 5.1 61a0db4a87 Belt printer: address the review on #14394
Code review items (raistlin7447):

1. PrintObject::slice() zeroes m_belt_min_z, m_belt_global_z_offset and
   m_belt_global_xy_correction before slicing. They were only written in belt
   mode, so a project switched to a normal printer, or whose tilt axis was set
   to None, kept the old offsets and shifted the adaptive infill octree and the
   organic support layers by them.
2. TreeModelVolumes shifts the support blockers into the raft-offset index
   space; a test now pins the index the blocker lands on.
3. The final-alignment clamp in libnest2d is opt-in (NfpPConfig::clamp_to_bin)
   and arrange sets it for belt printers only. Printers with an off-centre
   best_object_pos keep their alignment; a flat-bed test pins that.
4. The preview's belt view follows the loaded G-code, not the selected printer:
   GCodeProcessor carries the file's belt keys (and, for a belt file, its bed)
   into export_config_for_render(), and GCodeViewer enables the belt view from
   the header tilt.
5. belt_shift_layer_grid() also shifts the cached belt floor and the global Z
   offset, so a support-only or brim-only change after the purge-prism snap
   matches a fresh slice.
6. update_print_fff_config() resets raft_layers and draft_shield on a belt
   printer instead of only greying out the fields Print::validate() rejects.
7. GCodeWriter takes a first-layer point test instead of the FirstLayerPlane;
   GCode installs one that measures from the belt surface, like its
   extrusions, so the first-layer travel speed and the second-layer
   temperature change no longer depend on the gcode_remap_* convention.
8. belt_brim_clip_leading_edge() is exported and called by both the generator
   and the test.
9. Both phong.vs shaders use slope.up_direction for the overhang highlight.

The pre-slice and G-code axis remaps are gated on belt_printer through
BeltTransformPipeline::axis_remap_enabled(), so belt keys left in a profile
cannot change a non-belt print.

Tests requested in the review: belt-only keys at non-default values leave
non-belt G-code unchanged; switching a sliced project from belt to non-belt
(and tilt axis None) matches a fresh slice; a support-only change on a belt
purge print matches a fresh slice; non-belt start G-code moves keep the
first-layer Z in the processor; the belt brim's segment count catches a band
emitted twice.

The belt-to-non-belt test exposed an unrelated gap: invalidate_step(posSlice)
re-invalidated posSupportMaterial but not posSimplifySupportPath, so after
any re-slice the regenerated support paths were exported unsimplified.
posSimplifySupportPath is now in that list.

//
// After belt slicing each object's layer print_z carries a per-object global z
// offset (mesh-vertex-scan belt_z_shift + instance-Y-dependent terms), so
// objects at different belt-Y positions get layer grids with DIFFERENT residues
// (mod layer height). Purge marking looks absorbers up with
// get_layer_at_printz(lt.print_z, EPSILON), so a toolchange on object B only
// absorbs into the prism if the prism has a layer at B's print_z. Snapping only
// the prism to one object therefore worked for a single (assembled) multi-color
// object but failed with multiple separate objects — the prism could follow only
// one grid, and toolchanges on the others went unabsorbed ("multiple layer
// grids" warning).
//
// Fix: pick one reference grid (the tallest object) and shift every object onto
// it. Each shift is at most half a layer height — a sub-100µm move along the
// belt, the very same mechanism the per-object global_z_offset already uses, and
// it keeps each object internally consistent (belt_shift_layer_grid moves the
// object's layers, its support layers, and its belt floor together). Equal layer
// height across objects is enforced by Print::validate(), so once residues match
// every object steps on the same lattice {ref_offset + k*h} and every toolchange
// layer coincides with a prism layer.
