Feedback

Hi, Many thanx for providing the InfluxDB addon. I use InfluxDB (1.x) professionally and it hasn't let me down in the many years of service storing and exposing sensor data for large power grids. I just installed the addon on the latest-greatest haos. What is unclear to me: what version of influxdb is deployed (is it 1.x or 2.x)? HA only shows version 5.0.0 which is not an InfluxDB version. What is already setup and what do I need to do myself for HA to start using InfluxDB? For instance: I started making databases and users only to find out that at least the ha user was already there, but the home_assistant database wasn't. So I created it (documentation states you have to do this for 1.x) and granted the existing ha all access. There was no entry in configuration.yaml, so I added just the influxdb key to see if it already works. After reloading apparently not. So my request, please update the documentation such that it's clear to users what they need to do when installing the latest InfluxDB addon from the store.
