Rediscover Devices - Wrong name when connection is lost #4395

Describe the bug

When a sensor (mostly) or a lamp loses connection to the gateway, and are displayed in grey i can reconnect them via "search for new sensors" and press the discovery button on the device and the connection is reestablished. But the Name is changed to the default name. Thats pretty annoying.
Can you please reassign the last name to the device.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Loose the connection to a zigbee device, must be grey in sensors. Mostly applies for sensors.
  2. click search for new sensors
  3. put the device into pairing mode
  4. the frontends acccept the new/old sensor
  5. default name is displayed, i think assigment to rules / scenes / ids / buttons are the same.

Expected behavior

When rediscover already know sensors, use the old name. Just reconnect the device to the old already existing configuration. Just reaktivate.
