Add zhop to PA pattern (#2952)

Browse source 
The current PA pattern implementation does not lift the nozzle
when moving.  The way the pattern is drawn means that the nozzle
is often dragged over already printed lines, which can pull the
pattern off the bed, or damage the lines already drawn. As a
result I often see failed prints with the PA pattern, or moderate
damage to already drawn lines.
This change adds a 1 layer hop between each move to eliminate
nozzle drag.
