Release v3.0.0

Release v3.0.0 is a major update which adds the ability to configure a list of modbus device IDs to support sequential and non-sequential ID configurations, or a combination of both. If you're upgrading your inverter settings will be migrated to the new Device ID List configuration. v3.0.0 and future releases can't be downgraded to a v2.x.x release.

List: 1,2,3,4 or 1,3,10
Range: 1-4 becomes list 1,2,3,4
Combination: 1-3,5,10 becomes list 1,2,3,5,10

Entity naming for meters and batteries will now include the inverter Device ID in the name by default for new hubs or new devices. Existing entities will remain unchanged. Some entities had units removed from the default entity name. These changes may require updates to templates.

The Auto-Detect Additional Entities option will now be disabled by default. If you remove or re-add the hub or integration, the new default is disabled. Upgrades will maintain existing settings. See #653 for details.

Thanks to @thargy for functions to handle inverter device ID lists.
