Move stepper z position_endstop: out of printer.base.cfg #156

I suggest moving position_endstop: 220 out of printer.base.cfg to printer.cfg
That way you can save the endstop if you change it by z-adjusting.

For mine it was closer to 221.7

I don't think it should be changed. The purpose of the endstop is only to have a consistent reference position and everything else is determined by the bed mash. If we change the endstop so that the nozzle is directly at the bed at position z=0 even without bed mesh, this can lead to issues when you change the print surface.

For printers like the AD5M, we only need to create a bed mesh and adjust the probe offset (not the endstop). This is different from printers where the probe is also the endstop.
