Group like command/parameter controlling

[mStirner]

Find a way to implement a "master parameter".
E.g. A group of lights/LED-Strips where you can choose a color.
All colors/lights in this group can be changed from a single input.

Like a scene with commands "color" where the scene input is passed to all devices.

Custom makro: "grouControl" where mappings betweend parameter/values can be handeld?

[mStirner]

Can be simple implemented than though.
Things to notice:

• Input needs be saved/updated in scene item
• Inputs are 1:1 command parameters
• The command makro are passed the input array

            }

            // bind scope to method

[mStirner]

• test scene inputs on command that do not accept params
  -> e.g. "Abends: Ein" pass colors params
  -> should not break anything but print just warnings

• create "Abends: Color" scene, which set the color of "Abends" devices
