🚀 Recent New Features

• A new Battery Plus sensor, it echo's the normal battery but has additional attributes from Battery Notes to make it easier to use in the ui and automations, you can optionally hide the original battery with a configuration setting.
• A Battery Low binary sensor, it uses a global default threshold (10%, changeable in configuration) to indicate when a battery is low, you can also manually configure a device in battery notes and set a specific threshold for each device.
• A Battery Threshold event which is fired when the battery goes low, or returns high. Useful for notification automations.
• A Battery Increased event which is fired when a battery increases by a certain percentage (25%, changeable in configuration). Useful for battery replaced automations.
• Improvements to the json schema validation when editing within HA custom components folder, thanks @heyrichard17
