Reorder Calibrations list (#11389) 
* Reorder max volumetric speed calibration step

Moved the max volumetric speed calibration step after temperature tower in the documentation and updated the calibration menu initialization in MainFrame.cpp to match the new order.

* Update wiki image

* Reorder flow rate and pressure advance calibration steps

Updated documentation and GUI to list Pressure Advance calibration before Flow Rate calibration, reflecting the recommended calibration order. Adjusted menu item order in MainFrame.cpp and updated related documentation and image.
