[MC-242719] Deepslate transition starts too high which does not match old chunks

Summary:
Deepslate transition starts too high which does not match old chunks. It must start at Y = 4, not Y = 8. Only then will the transition match the bedrock.

Steps to reproduce:

Create a world in 1.17.
Upgrade to the latest pre-release.
Compare the deepslate transition in new chunks and old chunks.

Observed results:
The deepslate transition in new chunks starts too high compared to the old chunks.

Expected results:
The deepslate transition will be the same in both old chunks and new ones.

Probably intended to make a better transition between 1.17 deepslate blobs/patches and 1.18 deepslate transition.

It also allows deepslate coal ore to generate so it's fine.

I don't understand why you think it blend better with old chunks. And also deep coal ore will be generated if this flaw is corrected, since coal ore is generated from height 0.
