c48d74138a Update config.schema.json
Numeric's tap_action is different to the tap's, and re-using the $ref caused problems, so properties have been copied.

3404c7f679 Update schema for numeric tap_action and HISTORY
Add schema metadata and stricter validation for numeric tap_action: include title & description, disallow additionalProperties on the tap_action and its picker properties to better define the number picker payload. Update HISTORY.md with a 3.14 entry documenting numeric items now supporting tap_action.data and the PIN/menu behavior change, and credit the contributor.

8c5bdbc1f8 Non-touch screens cannot use PIN
When a menu item requests a PIN on devices without a touch screen, replace the menu item with an info item displaying a message for the user.

a97440b997 Preserve tap action data for numeric picker actions (#362)
Numeric menu items currently discard existing `tap_action.data` when
confirming a picker value. This prevents service call options such as
`transition` from being sent with `light.turn_on`.

This change passes `tap_action.data` into numeric menu items and merges
that data with the selected numeric picker value before calling the Home
Assistant service.

Example fixed payload:

```json
{
  "entity_id": "light.living_room",
  "transition": 2,
  "brightness": 128
}

Tested with a Forerunner 965 build and a Home Assistant light brightness numeric picker.

17690d4349 Proposing changes to documentation and JSON Schema
Added proposed documentation section explaining Numeric data object and also updated JSON schema to match changes.

I tested the numeric example with tap_action.data in the documented web editor. The current schema did not appear to reject the field,
likely because numeric tap_action does not currently forbid additional properties at that nested level. I still added data explicitly
to the numeric schema so it is documented, discoverable, and type-checked as an object.

2fb59d2a56 Update Actions.md
Main update is to point out the obvious that a PIN can only be used with touch screen enabled devices. Some additional tidying too.

## Confirmation
Any menu item with an action (`tap`, `template`, or `toggle`), may have a confirmation view added. For consistency this is always done via the `tap_action` JSON object, even though for a `toggle` menu item there will only ever be a single field inside. For the `toggle` menu item, the confirmation is presented on both `on` and `off` directions. There is no option for asymmetry, i.e. only in one direction.

It may well be the case that often `attribute` and `data_attribute` are the same attribute, as with this example.
## Additional Action Data
The `tap_action` object may also include a `data` object for fixed service call parameters. When the picker value is selected, the application merges the picker value into this `data` object using `data_attribute`.
For example, a light brightness picker can request a HomeAssistant transition while still using the picker value for `brightness`.
```json
{
"name": "Lounge Brightness",
"content": "{{ ((state_attr('light.lounge','brightness') | int(0) / 255) * 100) | round(0) }}%",

"picker": {
"step": 5,
"min": 0,
"max": 255,
"attribute": "brightness",
"data_attribute": "brightness"
}
}
}
```
The resulting action data sent to HomeAssistant contains both the fixed `transition` value and the selected `brightness` value.
