Effective 2023.11.x - homeassistant.util.temperature will be deprecated, working with RC version leads to integration loading failure

Describe the solution you'd like

HA knows how to handle unit conversion using the UI, it seems like redundant functionality - Line 356, 357 in init.py

Describe alternatives you've considered

no other option

I can confirm the issue with the version of HA released today.

I have implemented a quick workaround for this issue until the official fix is implemented.

1. Copy "temperature.py" to the "custom_components > iaquk" folder (I downloaded one from Github from the utils folder).
2. Change line 12 of "temperature.py" from "from .unit_conversion import TemperatureConverter" to "from homeassistant.util.unit_conversion import TemperatureConverter".
3. Edit "init.py" and change line 30 to "from .temperature import convert as convert_temperature".
4. Check config and restart.

That has got it working again for me.

I've done something similar,
Removed the import and the usage of it, mainly because it's should noy handle the conversion by component as this is out of the box capability

The author @Limych seems to be active in another project 4 days ago. So at least we know they're still there :)
