This PR adds support for a "remote-entity" type in the Integration-API. This allows integration drivers to define generic remote commands to control any type of device, which cannot be represented by one of the other entity types.
The Home Assistant integration will be updated right after this PR is merged to expose the defined remotes in HA.
The remote-entity closely follows the existing internal IR-remote entity:
Note: unfortunately this is not possible for the existing Home Assistant integration.
Changes to the internal IR-remote entity:
sendfeature, it defines thesend_cmdfeature:sendandsend_sequencecommands, it definessend_cmdandsend_cmd_sequencecommands.holddefines the button hold time (if supported by the integration driver & controlled device).
