removed "Off -> 3H" strobe/mood mode access from Extended Simple UI
fixes #85 The Simple UI is meant to be relatively child-safe, and the strobe modes are not. Users who want unsafe features enabled should use the full UI instead... and the strobe + mood modes should also have some safety features added, on drivers which have enough ROM to hold extra code.
