* VE.Direct: reset state machine on timeout
there will never be a large gap between two bytes of the same frame.
if such a large gap is observed, reset the state machine so it tries
to decode a new frame once more data arrives.
this is helpful in case of corrupted data that prevents the state
machine of transitioning to the final state even though the VE.Direct
data producer is done sending bytes that belong to the same frame.
* VE.Direct: print problems to MessageOutput
this includes the web console in particular, where many users have
access to while the serial console is not attached or monitored.
* VE.Direct: collect serial input into buffer and print
should help debug issues for users.
* VE.Direct: implement and use verbose logging switch
Make the administrative accesspoint timeout configurable. The default
value is 3 minutes, values from 0-99999 are possible, where 0 means
infinite (no timeout).

* DPL: implement verbose logging switch
* MQTT: implement verbose logging switch
* power meter: implement verbose logging switch
* Hoymiles lib: implement verbose logging switch
* cpp linting: "final" makes "virtual" and "override" redundant
... however, using only "final" is not as verbose.
* fix another fixable "passtrough" typo
the typo in the config's identifier is not changed to preserve
compatibility while not spending the effort to migrate the setting.
* webapp language: prefer SoC over SOC
* DPL: implement solar passthrough loss factor
in (full) solar passthrough mode, the inverter output power is coupled
to the charge controler output power. the inverter efficiency is already
accounted for. however, the battery might still be slowly discharged for
two reasons: (1) line losses are not accounted for and (2) the inverter
outputs a little bit more than permitted by the power limit.
this is undesirable since the battery is significantly drained if solar
passthrough is active for a longer period of time. also, when using full
solar passthrough and a battery communication interface, the SoC will
slowly degrade to a value below the threshold value for full solar
passthrough. this makes the system switch from charging the battery
(potentially rapidly) to discharging the battery slowly. this switch
might happen in rather fast succession. that's effectively
trickle-charging the battery.
instead, this new factor helps to account for line losses between the
solar charge controller and the inverter, such that the battery is
actually not involved in solar passthrough. the value can be increased
until it is observed that the battery is not discharging when solar
passthrough is active.
* VE.Direct: remove polling interval
the polling interval was meant to limit the amount of MQTT updates.
however, that is already controlled by the global MQTT publish interval.
the removed interval was instead used to limit polling of the VE.Direct
UART for incoming data.
the Victron device sends data unsolicited. the VeDirectFrameHandler does
not implement any polling mechanism. no data is ever sent to the Victron
device.
what the removed polling interval did was cause a buffer overrun of the
HardwareSerial class, since the incoming data was not processed in time.
so every five seconds, we read a whole valid VE.Direct frame, plus some
old data, which was not a whole frame, leading to VE.Direct error
messages to pop up.
with the polling interval removed, no framing errors are reported, and
instead we gain new data from the charge controller approximately ever
two seconds -- for free.
* VE.Direct: change texts to correct VE.Direct capital letters
* VE.Direct: improve "UpdatesOnly" switch labels
especially since the publish interval setting is gone, the label makes
it hard to comprehend what the switch does. update the texts to better
explain what the switch is used for.
use the same text on the VE.Direct info view.
* VE.Direct: use StatusBadge on info view
there were custom badges to indicate the VE.Direct settings. replace
those by the common StatusBadge to make then look the same as the other
badged on the info views.

This allows to enter a offset in kWh in the inverter properties which will be applied to the read Yield Total value of the inverter. Using this can set your total production to zero if you e.g. are using a used device.
After this commit its not possible to migrate from the old binary blob config to the new json based config!! If you still running a old version before 12. October please upgrade to a version before this commit.
