Add MQTT info to main doc #649

Cut and paste from the earlier release notes with a couple of typo fixes and an added note to draw attention to the need to not use custom prefix.

Is there a mechanism to stop the periodic polling for MQTT-connected Shellies? I see an error in my HASS log every time it tries to poll because it isn't able to reach the Shelly directly, but communication through MQTT is permitted.

You can set the scan_interval to 0 to disable the polling, but that will affect all devices. If you create a feature request on GitHub I will look at that when I have time.

I tried that, but then the integration started polling as quickly as it could (every time a poll failed it tried again). It's not a big deal, right now I have it set to 86400 :)
