Description

Add a new fixture category "No DMX" (or similar) to fixtures that are only controllable via dimmer pack, namely the ADB Europe 105 and the Robert Juliat 613SX (as of now).

That category could trigger showing a special warning on the fixture page. The fixture test should enforce that fixtures with that category only contain one-channel modes (since everything else would not be possible via a dimmer pack).

Research direction

Review the ADB Europe 105 and Robert Juliat 613SX fixture definitions, the fixture test, and the fixture page mentioned in the issue. Define the new category consistently, show the special warning for it, and ensure the test rejects categorized fixtures with modes using more than one channel.
