Description

This adds the option to have a 0-based filament indexing instead of the default 1-based filament indexing. Some printers (Including most klipper printers such as ercf, toolchangers, etc) have a 0-based filament indexing and it can be pretty confusing when filaments dont have the same nomenclature in slicer and in printers GUI or WebUI.

Screenshots/Recordings/Graphs

Tests

Here are the tests I did and that seemed to work:

Activating and deactivating the option (of course)
Making sure all of the UI shown in the Screenshots/Recordings/Graphs section is updated in real time after toggling the option
Saving printer settings and 3mf files with the option toggled on and off
Increasing number of extruders of the printer with the option toggled on and off
