Builds a permissive ESI extension for a parameter that cannot be matched against the ESI file.
A parameter present in the device object dictionary but missing from the ESI file has no object
definition to derive type, unit, constraint or option information from. Returning an empty
extension would leave inputType undefined and such a parameter could not be rendered as a form
input, so infer the input type from the parameter type and leave the value unconstrained.
