Support for HA 2022.6

This release is an urgent update to support Home Assistant 2022.6. This release contains some new features but the readme is not yet complete so stay tuned for the update to follow.

If you get a configuration error after upgrading then check any zone_id: in the config. The id must conform to 'snake_case' style with the exception the first character can be a number. This means only lower case, numbers and the underscore characters can be used. It cannot start or end with an underscore and no more than one together. Valid id's are my_garden, front_lawn, rose_bed, 1. Some invalid examples are Front_Lawn, front__lawn, _front_lawn. You should have been getting warning messages in the previous release but now it is enforced. There is a good reason for this to be explained later but I thank you for your understanding in the meantime.
