Radio buttons in AEM content fragment model editor

[#1]

Description -

Currently, the content fragment model editor does not contain a radio data type.

Why is this feature important to you -

Most of the time content fragment contains some data like selecting gender. for this kind of work, we have to use the dropwon data type.

for refrennce,

I have written one blog for a similar kind of feature just to add color picker data type.

Hi @Suraj_Kamdi 

The product team indicated that enumeration data type allows for rendering as radio button today i.e. allows selecting from choices. Since radio button is just presentation, not content structure per se, then enumeration data type can be used as an alternative. Thanks

@hamidk92094312 Thanks for the update. I know we can use the enumeration data type as an alternative but happy with your prompt reply.
