Easier way to omit ssl verification

[mietzen]

You can now use:

with Client(hass_url, hass_token, verify_ssl=False) as client:

instead of:

with Client(hass_url, hass_token, global_request_kwargs={'verify': False}) as client:

This is a cool idea! I'm interested in hearing more about the motivation for your idea and what your use case is like. Could you tell us more about that?

I wrote a Python module (fritz-advanced-thermostat) to control the offset of FRITZ!DECT30X Thermostats. The manufacture AVM is unfortunately unwilling to let us control the offset via the official API, so I'm using selenium + chromium to do so.
First I wanted to write a AppDeamon App, but spinning up a chromium instances is too much for my raspberry pi.

So now I'm using HomeAssistantAPI in combination with fritz-advanced-thermostat in a docker container on my NAS and since I'm running all my internal services on https I needed a way to disable ssl verification.

I thought adding the option in general would spare some one with a similar use case the hassle of digging through the source code.

Sounds awesome.

Testing Fixes

The verify parameter isn't accepted by the aiohttp.request method, which is why some of the tests are failing, as this default parameter value is being added to all async test requests. I'd propose we move the parameter to RawClient, the synchronous client that uses requests.

Styling Fixes

This part definitely isn't your fault but we just need to fix the type annotation for global_request_kwargs to dict[str, Any] | None in a few spots.

New commit. Fixed changes.

@mietzen could you add me as a collaborator with push permissions on your form so I may polish this PR to pass quality checks?

You should be good to go 👍
Sorry my time is quite limited lately, this PR went by the board.

[GrandMoff100]

No worries 👍 I got you.

Manually merging this because the tests pass on my machine. GitHub isn't passing the HOMEASSISTANTAPI_TOKEN secret from the environment to the workflow causing all of them to fail with an authentication error.
