1.18.0

Breaking changes

Upgrading to this version will require changes to the integration configuration and also likely some modifications to the device json file. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

• New HA unified configuration schema for controllers with syntax validation. Please see docs for the new configuration format!
• New strict checks for JSON device data files were implemented. There were many errors in the existing files, some I was able to fix, others were renamed as .invalid. I would be happy if you submit fixed version of those as PR.
• Climate json files now require temperatureUnit parameter, for exact syntax see docs
• Climate devices now support preset modes. For example see 1266.json. For exact syntax see docs
• Climate now support more versatile format with 'catch all' key '-', for more info see docs
