Proposed change
Similar to my previous PRs that aim to bring feature parity between the backend and frontend in the automation editor, this PR introduces one of the final major missing pieces: negated triggers. It adds support for the
not_fromandnot_toautomation states, aligning the frontend with the backend capabilities.I tried a few different UI/UX ideas, like a toggle for inversion or a dropdown for the match operator, but I think the current version feels like the best balance of clarity and usability.

Disclaimer: I’m not a frontend developer (anymore), so this is the best implementation I could come up with. I also used codex, so yeah this is done using AI. It looks and works fine, but if there’s a cleaner or more elegant approach, feel free to improve it! ❤️
