///   `ROFF → ASLO/AOFF → LINR/ESLO/EOFF → smoothing` to produce VAL
///   from RVAL).
///
/// - **`computed()`** (C return 2): Device support wrote to VAL directly.
///   The record's `process()` will **skip** its conversion and use the
///   VAL as-is. Use this when the device support provides engineering
///   units directly (e.g., soft channel, asyn, custom drivers that
///   call `record.put_field("VAL", ...)`).
///
/// **Common mistake:** returning `ok()` when VAL is set directly causes
/// the record's conversion to overwrite VAL with a value derived from
/// RVAL (typically 0), making the read appear broken.
