Use Lidar to adjust Printhead-Position #918

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Printing higher Objects I experience sometimes that the Objects are not perfectly at position. This may be due to Temperature warping, and such factors. Its a problem also with Tree-Support that has a strength of 1 Line only. Is it possible, - especially if the Objects are higher - to use the LIDAR to adjust the Printhead Position from Time to Time, especially after Errors, when the Chamber and the Material cooled down because it was waiting for the User response?

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to check if the Lidar can be used to adjust Printhead Position (optionaly - as it takes time) to the real position where it should print..

Describe alternatives you've considered There are no Alternatives, currently if there is too mach Warping the Printout is trash. Especially for important Printouts an additional safety would be welcome. As this needs time, it should be optional.

Nice. That could also be useful in a recovery situation (I've moved the head manually and had it skip steps, though only once). More recenlty I printed some not-very-tall parts but they all had a ridge of at least a line's width where the part on the bed meets the part on the supports.
