FIX overpowering bug

In case of overpowering, an over_climate VTherm is looping and an over_switch VTherm will never end the overpowering.

3.2.0.beta2 - Capability to manage multiple heaters with one VThermostat

This pre-release implements the feature:

1. Capability to manage multiple heaters with one VThermostat - #67

You now have to possibility to specify more than one heater in the configuration. In that case, the cycle in the cycle of each heater, the device_power is the device power of each heater also (and not the sum of all heater power).

The algorithm now make its best to lower the power consumption at a specified time by shifting the starts of heating while keeping the overall calculated power.

WARNING: a lot of rework have been done for this feature, so don't apply this pre-release on critical environment.

Release 3.1.1 - FIXes from community bugs

This release contains only bug fixes signaled by community:

1. In thermostat_over_climate mode, error when underlying climate is not available on startup - #56,
2. security_default_on_percent cannot be set to 0 - #63. Thanks to @daangel27.
3. When windows opens and closes rapidly (in the same second), the thermostat can stay Off - #66. Thanks to @frankb

No special recommandations for installation.

Release 3.1.0 - Add a window open detection based on internal temperature change

The release contains the following enhancement:

• Add a window open detection based on internal temperature change - #28

It adds the possibility to use the window/door feature without any door sensor. It detects the drop of temperature in the room and then shutdown the heater until the temperature stop dropping or for a certain time maximum.

Cette release contient l'évolution suivante :

• Ajout d'une détection d'ouverture de fenêtre/porte basée sur les changements de température - #28

Elle ajoute la possibilité d'utiliser la fonction "gestion des ouvertures" sans avoir de capteur d'ouverture. Elle détecte la chute brutale de température dans la pièce et coupe le chauffage, jusqu'à ce que la température arrête de chuter ou après un temps maximum.

Enjoy !

[#28] Add a window open detection based on internal temperature change

This prelease contains a preview of the feature:

Add a window open detection based on internal temperature change - #28

Window open detection based on temperature

Cf. #28

-- Please note this is a very early preview release. Not fully tested and may contains regressions.
DO NOT INSTALL in a PRODUCTION environment.

Release 3.0.0 - Add devices and entities

This major release contains the following enhancements:

1. Use Device and multiple entities to conform with HA philosophy - #54
2. Add into documentation for css around the thermostat front component - #27

See the readme here for more informations about new entities: https://github.com/jmcollin78/versatile_thermostat#sensors

This release also includes those issues:

1. Add unit testing - #48
2. Add Versatile Thermostat into rapid restart - #58

No change on configuration is needed. New entities will be available upon restart.
The pre-release should be fully retro-compatible with 2.3.0. Attributes are kept temporary in the climate entity but in deprecated mode.

They will be remove in the 4.0.0 release.

Add default power and energy unit

Power (resp. energy) unit is calculated from device_power value. If > 100, we assume that the unit is Watt (resp. Wh), else kW (resp. kWh).

Add the fast reload function (but it does nothing...)
