[bellrichm]

Fixes

• Correct handling of conversion_type and format_string options.
• Better handling of tls related default values.
• Support aggregate values:
  Ability to configure the WeeWX database binding used to calculate aggregates. (db_manager never initialized - aggregates feature completely broken #7)
  Support for specifying a WeeWX unit system to convert all observations to. (Aggregates not converted to configured unit_system #8)
  When an observation has a unit specified, use that when appending to the observation name.
• Improved reconnect logic. (Plugin stops publishing after broker downtime — interaction between max_retries and max_thread_restarts causes silent failure #14)
• Allow shutdown when attempting to (re)connect. (Plugin stops publishing after broker downtime — interaction between max_retries and max_thread_restarts causes silent failure #14)
• Perform MQTT disconnect on shut down and send 'offline' message.

Enhancements

• Use the week_start configuration option of the the [station] when calculating week aggregates.
• Improvements when running in 'standalone mode'.
• Ability to configure how long to wait between connection attempts. (Plugin stops publishing after broker downtime — interaction between max_retries and max_thread_restarts causes silent failure #14)
• Ability to configure the maximum attempts to start the publishing thread. (Plugin stops publishing after broker downtime — interaction between max_retries and max_thread_restarts causes silent failure #14)
