Behavior
Firmware contract
Treat the incoming value as a selected segment index.
On the app side this widget snaps to the 8-column square grid and uses both resizing. Its raw type is SEGMENTED_CONTROL and the matching icon token in the app is square.split.1x2.fill.
Pin support: A configured pin is required before the widget becomes meaningful.
Transmission: Payload format depends on the widget type and the selected pinType.
