v0.7.0

Breaking change

• Due to new features introduced in this release, a new parameter "Charger current update period" is now required in the config flow. Please delete then re-add the integration. Please see SolarCharger initial configuration for more information.
• Renamed "Allocated power" sensor to "Delta allocated power" sensor.

New feature

• Decoupled net power update from current adjustments to,
  1. regulate current adjustments according to site requirement, and
  2. provide a larger "net allocated power" data set for median calculation in order to reliably pause/unpause charger during low solar periods.
• Charger current adjustment is now driven by net power update event, ie. no need to set "Wait net power update" interval for timer driven updates.
• Charger current adjustment is now synchronised on the "Charger current update period" across all chargers triggered by a net power update event.

Improvement

• Introduced a configurable buffer (extra percentage of minimum workable current) to raise the exit threshold for the pause state. This prevents rapid toggling between charging and paused states in borderline scenarios.
• Added "Net allocated power data set" sensor to indicate whether data set is ready for use depending on duration of captured data.
• Added "Median net allocated power period" sensor to indicate the net power update period.
• Delta allocated power is now driven by the net power update event instead of periodic timer event.
• Synchronised charge current update across all chargers is now driven by the net power update event instead of periodic timer event.
• Used median net allocated power instead of simple moving average to ignore outliers for determining whether or not to pause/unpause charger.
• Refactored config flow for better error response and ease of maintenance.
• Improved power allocation: Devices running at max current are excluded from power allocation.
• Improved power deallocation: Devices running at zero current are excluded from power deallocation.
• Added "Median net allocated power" sensor.
• Added "Net allocated power" sensor.
• For faster charger pause/unpause response, the same power monitor data structure is now used by all machine states.
• Added missing entities for config debug logging during startup.
