Implement time estimate calculation for SLA printers without tilt.

This commit adds time estimate calculation based on lift and retract.
Calculation with these parameters gets triggered if tilt parameters
are set to null (N/A) in the SLA printer tab.

It also adds a `Time estimate correction` field in the `Corrections`
section of the SLA printer tab to account for processing delays of the
selected printer.
