[Neos] start node for content menu

[Aske Ertmann]

Hey Dominic

I just had a quick look into the menu implementation and it looks like you should set the property "startingPoint" and not "node". It does use the node from the context, but that's not overwritable in TypoScript.

Have a look here https://git.typo3.org/Packages/TYPO3.Neos.git/blob/HEAD:/Classes/TYPO3/Neos/TypoScript/MenuImplementation.php#l129
