The value "IMMEDIATELY_PRECEDES" of matchType argument is always changing to "PRECEDES"

[digitos]

What goes wrong

An argument of the segment_element() function doesn't work correctly:

The value "IMMEDIATELY_PRECEDES" of matchType argument is always changing to "PRECEDES"

Segment Builder has the same problem.

Steps to reproduce the problem

There is, for example, a sequence of steps:

step1 <- segment_element("pagePath", 
                         operator = "REGEXP", 
                         type = "DIMENSION", 
                         expressions = "^/step-1",
                         matchType = "IMMEDIATELY_PRECEDES")

step2 <- segment_element("eventCategory", 
                         operator = "EXACT", 
                         type = "DIMENSION", 
                         expressions = "Call to action",
                         matchType = "IMMEDIATELY_PRECEDES")

step3 <- segment_element("pagePath", 
                         operator = "REGEXP", 
                         type = "DIMENSION", 
                         expressions = "^/success",
                         matchType = "IMMEDIATELY_PRECEDES")

sv_sequence <- segment_vector_sequence(list(list(step1),list(step2),list(step3)))
seq_defined <- segment_define(list(sv_sequence))
segment4_seq <- segment_ga4("sequence", user_segment = seq_defined)

Expected output

> segment4_seq[[1]][["dynamicSegment"]][["userSegment"]][["segmentFilters"]][[1]][["sequenceSegment"]][["segmentSequenceSteps"]][[1]][["matchType"]]
[1] "IMMEDIATELY_PRECEDES"
> segment4_seq[[1]][["dynamicSegment"]][["userSegment"]][["segmentFilters"]][[1]][["sequenceSegment"]][["segmentSequenceSteps"]][[2]][["matchType"]]
[1] "IMMEDIATELY_PRECEDES"
> segment4_seq[[1]][["dynamicSegment"]][["userSegment"]][["segmentFilters"]][[1]][["sequenceSegment"]][["segmentSequenceSteps"]][[3]][["matchType"]]
[1] "IMMEDIATELY_PRECEDES"

Actual output

> segment4_seq[[1]][["dynamicSegment"]][["userSegment"]][["segmentFilters"]][[1]][["sequenceSegment"]][["segmentSequenceSteps"]][[1]][["matchType"]]
[1] "PRECEDES"
> segment4_seq[[1]][["dynamicSegment"]][["userSegment"]][["segmentFilters"]][[1]][["sequenceSegment"]][["segmentSequenceSteps"]][[2]][["matchType"]]
[1] "PRECEDES"
> segment4_seq[[1]][["dynamicSegment"]][["userSegment"]][["segmentFilters"]][[1]][["sequenceSegment"]][["segmentSequenceSteps"]][[3]][["matchType"]]
[1] "PRECEDES"

Thanks very much for this @digitos - your reproduceable example let me find the bug easily.
