- Around line 329-332: Update the transition retrigger handling around the
blendingStyle and _t->_oldSegment condition to reset _t->_start, _t->_dur, and
_t->_bri for rapid on/off toggles, including when _t->_oldSegment exists and
blendingStyle is not TRANSITION_FADE. Ensure the _progress == 0 path also
refreshes these values, while preserving the existing no-restart behavior for
changes that should allow an ongoing effect or non-FADE transition to finish.
- Line 575: Update the forced-FADE handling around startTransition and the
_oldSegment/blendingStyle logic so an existing no-copy opacity or CCT transition
does not bypass global non-FADE on/off blacking. Preserve the selected non-FADE
mode for global power transitions, or execute the blacking path before the !segO
override, while retaining normal FADE behavior for other transitions.

setOpacity()starts a transition without an old-segment copy. In that path,opacityOldremains equal to the current opacity, and Line 1516 forcesblendingStyletoTRANSITION_FADE. Therefore, opacity changes never use the selected non-FADE mode. Preserve the selected mode and obtain the old opacity from transition state, such as the transition-start brightness, without creating a segment copy.This conflicts with the stated PR objective that opacity changes use the selected transition mode.

@willmmiles please have a look. I updated the PR description with some info. Any feedback welcome. |

Current behaviour:
when changing opacity in any transition mode other than "fade" brightness/opacity gets set immediatly, no transition
New behaviour:
Full rework on how transitions are handled:
There are many combinations that were previously unhandled by just restarting a transition.
What this now does is to handle per segment transitions and global transitions the same: users can use a segment as an individual light (for example in different rooms) while transitions behave the same on a segment level.
There may be some edge cases that are not handled gracefully but I spend a lot of time examining countless combinations. The code is quite complex to handle all combinations and I tried my best to comment as much as needed to hopefully make this maintainable.
