docs: Note "NTC 100k beta 3950" as not preferred As pointed out in issue Klipper3d#4054, the "NTC 100k beta 3950" sensor type is not as accurate as "EPCOS 100K B57560G104F" for most NTC 100k B3950 thermistors. The generic name and inclusion next to other sensor types with more specific names, implies that it would be a good default option. To guide users away from this option, this PR removes it from the [extruder] section, and lists it at the end of the options in the "Common thermistors" section with "not preferred" in parenthesis next to it.

One minor comment, the docs doesn't make it clear, that if your thermistor says its a "beta 3950k" (like many cheap ones do) that you should probably use the EPCOS spec. |

Thanks. I think we may just want to deprecate the existing "NTC 100k beta 3950" - see my comments at #4054 (comment) -Kevin |

I think this should be addressed with the merge of PR #4859 . -Kevin |

type is not as accurate as "EPCOS 100K B57560G104F" for most
NTC 100k B3950 thermistors. The generic name and inclusion
next to other sensor types with more specific names, implies
that it would be a good default option.
