I noticed that these are missing while looking at dissassembly of the
Pytes implementation of the protocol. I also found Pylontech sample
CAN messages] which match the Pytes implementation [1]:
```
CAN ID – followed by 2 to 8 bytes of data:
0x351 – 14 02 74 0E 74 0E CC 01 – Battery voltage + current limits
^^^^^ discharge cutoff voltage 46.0V
0x355 – 1A 00 64 00 – State of Health (SOH) / State of Charge (SOC)
0x356 – 4e 13 02 03 04 05 – Voltage / Current / Temp
0x359 – 00 00 00 00 0A 50 4E – Protection & Alarm flags
^^^^^ always 0x50 0x59 in Pytes implementation
^^ module count (matches the blog article image)
0x35C – C0 00 – Battery charge request flags
^^ two possible additional flags (bit 3 and bit 4)
0x35E – 50 59 4C 4F 4E 20 20 20 – Manufacturer name (“PYLON “)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Note: Pytes sends a 5-byte message "PYTES" instead
padding with spaces
```
The extra charge request flag is "bit4: SOC low" (Seems to be SoC < 10%
threshold for Pytes), I haven't bothered adding that as it provides
little value.

This breaks existing HASS automation, as entity names and MQTT topics change!
* include dtu-unique-id in DPL MQTT HASS topics to allow multiple DTUs to be controlled
* fix filename "src/MqttHandlVedirectHass.cpp"
* refactor: use values from 'MqttHandleHass', add 'via_device' to all HASS devices
* set step size for power limiter voltage values
this method calls the overflowed() method on the respective
DynamicJsonDocument and prints a respective message if not all
data could be added to the DynamicJsonDocument.
* pylontech HA integration: remove unused method/variable
* make MqttHandlePylontechHassClass::publishConfig() private.
there are no outside users of that method.
* rename to MqttHandleBatteryHass
* battery HA integration: merge methods and bring back forceUpdate().
even though the forceUpdate() method was not in use before, it makes
sense to implement it and use it when the battery config changes.
rather than controlling a separate flag, it now changes the _doPublish
flag of the class, which also triggers publishing the device config to
Home Assistant when an MQTT connection problem was detected. since
both situations are now handled similarly, we can merge the loop() and
publishConfig() methods.
* battery: provider specific sensors for HA
* move Battery MQTT loop to BatteryStats
the BatteryStats class should handle the MQTT publishing, including the
interval. for the calculation of a reasonable Home Assistent expiration
value this class now also knows the maximum publish interval.
* JK BMS: fix publishing values for Home Assistent
Home Assistent values expire, because we set them to expire after three
MQTT publish durations. for that reason, we need to re-publish all
values after our self-inflicted full publish interval.
* define JK BMS sensors for Home Assistent
