When ESS mode is set to 3 (external control), don't show a system state. Otherwise it will sometimes show ESS reason codes that make no sense. victronenergy/venus#1270

The systemstate indicator, the
#codes shown on the overview, still attempt to show the system state when external control is used. This sometimes causes confusion, especially when#2shows up while BatteryLife is obviously not in play. This happens because the BatteryLife state machine still remembers what state it was in before the mode was changed to External Control.The best solution is simply not to attempt to determine a system state when ESS mode is set to External Control. The reason codes are there so users can understand why the system is doing what it is doing, and during External control, the system is per definition not doing its normal thing, someone else is.
