Subject: [PATCH] bdp_guard: new zero at every ARM

With TPU in a nozzle heating to 150C the pressure kept changing for
minutes (+43, then -56 as it oozed), faster than the sensor's own
baseline update, and the guard stopped the printer at the start of
z_check and home_xy with the nozzle in the air. Every ARM (also a phase
switch) now writes reset_probe (register 52) and waits 0.2 s without
reading, so only force during the guarded moves counts.
