[feature request] - Add a warning if G6 is used, but readings are only pulled from Dexcom Share, indicating a wrong transmitter ID about trio

I don't use Dexcom Share, so how do you get to this? It automatically falls back to Dexcom Share? Or is this the same situation as when you remove the G6 and it automagically falls back to Nightscout instead. (Shows it in dropdown, but no warnings on glucose source there either.)

that should not happen anymore with Trio as there's now a proper "no CGM chosen" option and doesn't just default to NS-as-CGM. have you run into it? 👀

@dnzxy I'll try again on next sensor change :)

You can optionally enter your Dexcom Share credentials in the G6 CGM configuration. This allows readings to be backfilled after the phone has been out of range of the transmitter. The problem is that it can also cover up the mistake of not changing the transmitter ID in Trio (remove G6 as CGM sources and add it back in with the new ID) when changing the transmitter. This allows internet dependency to creep up on users.
