Returns control information for a device in the system, or all devices.
Devices contain "control pairs", one pair for each possible control value.
For example, a light that can be turned on and off would contain 2
control pairs, one for ON and one for OFF. The control pair describes
how to control the device. The most important information is the "Label"
and the "ControlValue", as those will be needed when the device is to
be controlled. The information from this call can be used to build a
user interface that will control the device.
Parameters:
ref=### (where ### is the device reference #, or "all" to return control
information for all devices)
