Issue description

I’m working on a project using the Arduino Nano Matter board with the Matter 2.0.0 library. My goal is to integrate four switches into a single accessory in Apple HomeKit. Each switch should support different press types, including short press, long press, and multi-press.

I’m encountering challenges where each switch appears as a separate device, and I’m struggling to implement the various press types using the MatterSwitch class. Methods like report_event or triggerEvent don’t seem to be available.

I would appreciate any guidance or examples on how to consolidate these switches into one accessory and properly handle different button press types within the existing library framework. Thank you for any assistance you can provide!
