Temperature fields with the unit "K" are not writable in HA

[LordShadowen]

Description

Not 100% sure this is a bug of intended behavior...

I've changed the mqtt filter to allow writable fields when using MQTT Auto Discovery.

I've noticed that temperature fields with the unit K (Kelvin) were always just read-only sensors, while the standard °C where correctly created as numbers.

I've "fixed" it by editing my mqtt-hassio.cfg and changing this:

type_switch-w-number =
    number,temperature, = temp|,°C$
    number,power_factor, = power*%%

to this

type_switch-w-number =
    number,temperature, = temp|,°C$
    number,temperature, = temp|,K$
    number,power_factor, = power*%%

I've not really understood the syntax of this cfg file, so this might not be the "correct" way. But it did work - the fields showed up as numbers in HA now.

Actual behavior

Fields of unit type K are not writable in HA

Expected behavior

Fields of unit type K are writable in HA

not a bug, but was just not forseen that someone would like to adjust temp diff settings via HA, as temp sensors usually should read in °C
