New feature: reading optimizer data
This data is refreshed every 5 minutes, as the inverter does not offer more granular updates.
Exposed entities:
- Input Current
- Input Voltage
- Output Current
- Output Voltage
- Output Power
- Temperature
- Accumulated Energy Yield
- Voltage to Ground (disabled by default)
- Running Status (online/offline/disconnected)
The option "Advanced: elevate permissions" needs to be checked for this to work: the inverter requires elevated permissions to request the optimizer data.

**Tip**: the easiest way to find the Optimizer "devices" in Home Assistant is via:
- Go to Settings > "Devices & Services"
- click on "X devices" in the "Huawei Solar" tile
You will now see a list of all devices associated with this integration, including one per optimizer:
Clicking on a specific optimizer will show you the entities associated with that specific optimizer. You can now rename them to something more clear for your setup.
