I tried to limit the led index to [0-3] (from the original
'^led@[a-f0-9]+$') and reg also to [0-3] (originally not constrained).

I thought it was including the previous object definition when I
mentioned the same property again. However, the
"unevaluatedProperties: false" made it clear that it is actually
replacing the previous declaration. Sorry for my lack of experience.

I would like to somehow add a restriction without replacing the
existing subnode definition. I'm not sure if the YAML scheme can
modify an heritaged sub-sub-property without redefining it all over
again or if the parent object requires a specific subobject property.
Anyway, the discussion ended up concluding that it was not worth it to
add such complexity for this situation.

Thank you for your time.
