device_class not set when using discovery #41

When using discovery via MQTT, the garage door is configured as a generic "cover" ie. blinds. It would be great if the MQTT Cover device_class could be set to "garage"

Workaround applied in Home Assistant

homeassistant:
  customize:
    cover.garage_door:
      device_class: garage

@bg1000 could you add this in your fork?
