1.2.0 — Five appliances, dark theme, four languages

[sionetta]

Added

• Five appliance types in one card via appliance_type: washer, dryer
  (alias tumbler), dishwasher, oven and microwave — each with its own
  SVG illustration, header icon, running animation and localized labels.
  Thanks to @cr0co (Add appliance_type for washer, dryer, dishwasher, oven, and microwave #8).
• Light and dark themes. The card follows the Home Assistant theme
  automatically; theme: auto | light | dark pins it if you prefer.
• Visual editor support — getConfigForm() and getStubConfig(), so the
  card can be configured from the UI without writing YAML. Thanks to
  @cr0co (Add appliance_type for washer, dryer, dishwasher, oven, and microwave #8).
• French translation of the interface. Thanks to
  @tonyontheroad (feat: add French translation (fr) #3).
• README_FR.md, plus a demo GIF and a light/dark screenshot for every one of
  the four languages.

Fixed

• SVG gradient IDs are now unique per card instance — two cards on the same
  dashboard no longer share (and corrupt) each other's gradients.
• Language detection matches the full tag first (pt-br), then the base
  language (pt), so adding a translation needs nothing but a new entry in
  STRINGS.

Changed

• The project is now an appliance card rather than a washing-machine card:
  READMEs in all four languages were rewritten accordingly.
• Documentation for smart appliances that report their own state (Home Connect,
  Miele@home, LG ThinQ, SmartHQ) — see examples/smart_appliance.yaml.
