[FR] Create Spoolman HomeAssistant Add-On #406

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Yes and no, I'm migrating my old home network docker setup to a new device running Supervised HomeAssistant, and HomeAssistant doesn't like containers that aren't from HomeAssistant running alongside it. I could just install Spoolman on another device, but seeing there's an integration through HACS got me thinking.

Describe the solution you'd like Seems most, if not all homeassistant addons run via docker containers, it's just a matter of setting up an add-on configuration with some files that homeassistant needs to build the add-on correctly. There's some example documentation here: https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/add-ons/

Describe alternatives you've considered I could just install Spoolman on a different device, but then I don't have all of my self-hosted services coming from one device.

Additional context I know it's not really the primary scope here, and I'm an "edge case", but I think if you had someone on the team who is familiar with Homeassistant, this would be a much better way to deploy a spoolman integration vs just having a HACS implementation. If I could run spoolman via HomeAssistant Add-On Store and get the same functionality the HACS integration offers, that would be awesome!

Great idea, that would be a great feature

+1 this would be great, especially as there's an integration available too.
