Summary0012830: Dwarves do not continue stairs from below after converting blueprint to regular designation
DescriptionThis bug exists in at least 50.13 and 50.12, but it is NOT in 47.05.

Expected behavior: when a usable up stair or up-down stair exists below an up-down or down stair designation, the dwarves should dig stairs up from below.

Current behavior: the designation will never activate, as if they are unable to path to it. They must be provided another path to the designation, and then the rest of the stairs will be dug as expected.
Steps To Reproduce1) designate a staircase to be dug in some rock, accessible only from the bottom level; it may be only 2 z-levels high, or include up-down stairs as well, it doesn't matter.
- Example: Starting at Elevation 0, designate stairs four levels up: E0 is up stair (<), E1 and E2 are up-down stairs (X), E3 is down stair (>)

2) "Convert mining to blueprint" (m-n-L), and select some number of top layers, but leave the bottom layer(s) active.
- Example: convert Elevations 2 and 3 to blueprint

3) Let the dwarves mine out the lower layers. Notice that the top level mined out is a valid up stair.

4) "Convert mining blueprint to regular" (m-n-k), and select the top layers of the stairs.
- Example: convert E2 and E3 to regular mining.

5) Notice the stairs will never be mined.

6) Dig another path adjacent to the to-be-mined designated stairs.
- Example: a few tiles away, ramp up to E2 or E3, and then dig over to a tile adjacent to the designation.

7) Notice the stairs are mined immediately
