[1.1.x]Update Anet A8 default values from my Anet A8 experience #8426

requested against bugfix branch.
Update the Anet A8 configuration with more useful defaults based on my A8 and Marlin installation.
These are minor, but a newbie would not have to think too much. Changing the extruder steps to 100 matched my A8 and would be a more convenient number to calculate real rate if needed.

Holding this for now so I remember to apply the same to bugfix-2.0.x.

If it reads 160 then your hotend is actually getting cold. Wrap your heater block in ceramic tape if the fan cools it too much. (185°C is low PLA temp, and a disparity of 25°C is nothing to sneeze at.)
