Dimmer not responding to new percentage values -- with fix

[brahmafear]

MySensors 2.3.0 NodeManager 1.7 Homeassistant 0.73.2 controller

Default SensorDimmer does not respond to changing brightness. onReceive function seems to only respond to V_STATUS messages.

Changed SensorDimmer::onReceive() code to this as temporary fix:

  // handle a SET command
  if (message->getCommand() == C_SET ) {
    // if changing the status
    if (message->type == V_STATUS) setStatus(message->getInt());
    // if changing the percentage of the dimmer
    if (message->type == V_PERCENTAGE) setPercentage(message->getInt());
  }

Thanks for reporting it, adding to the v1.8 dev queue

@brahmafear I'm reviewing this in more details and seems weird the original code with child->getType() == V_PERCENTAGE is not working as expected. Are you sure you are sending the V_PERCENTAGE message to the second child? Your workaround unfortunately would make both the child responding to both V_STATUS and V_PERCENTAGE which is not ideal. Thanks!
