Changes include:

New Machine Profiles: Added definitions for Creality K2 with 0.2mm, 0.4mm, 0.6mm, and 0.8mm nozzle variants.
Process Profiles: Comprehensive set of process settings for all nozzle sizes (covering 0.08mm to 0.56mm layer heights).
Filament Support: Added filament compatibility mappings for PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU, etc.
Assets: Added Creality K2_cover.png printer thumbnail.
Registration: Updated
resources/profiles/Creality.json

Manual Verification: Verified that the new profiles import correctly into OrcaSlicer and appear in the printer selection wizard.

Configuration Check: Validated JSON syntax and inheritance structure for machine, process, and filament profiles to ensure no breaking overrides.
