public enum HomeBackend

Which platform service is behind this SmartHome instance.

Provided so an app can explain a limitation, not so it can branch around one. Every real capability question has its own query – SmartHome.getAvailability(), Trait support on a service, TraitSubscription.isPushDelivery(), Commissioner.isSupported() – and code that switches on this enum instead will be wrong the first time a backend gains or loses something. Use it for the sentence you show the user.

Enum constants

`HOMEKIT`	Apple HomeKit, on iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS and macOS.
`GOOGLE_HOME`	The Google Home APIs on Android: the full structure, room, device and trait graph.

`LOCAL`	The app-private simulated home used by the simulator, the desktop ports and the JavaScript port.
`NONE`	No backend at all – the inert fallback.
