Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe: Currently, the Homebridge Tech-Sterowniki Platform Plugin offers excellent functionality for controlling and monitoring Tech-Sterowniki devices in a HomeKit environment, focusing primarily on temperature metrics. However, it lacks the ability to integrate humidity data from these devices. In my smart home setup, being able to track and automate tasks based on humidity levels is as crucial as temperature, especially for maintaining optimal living conditions and managing devices like humidifiers and dehumidifiers.

Describe the solution you'd like: I propose extending the capabilities of the Homebridge Tech-Sterowniki Platform Plugin to include humidity sensor data from EMODUL.EU devices. This addition would allow users to monitor and control humidity levels through the Home app and Siri voice commands, similar to how temperature is currently managed. It would be incredibly beneficial to have both temperature and humidity data available in one unified HomeKit interface.

Describe alternatives you've considered: An alternative solution could be the use of a separate plugin specifically for humidity data integration. However, this approach may not provide the seamless and integrated experience that users of the Homebridge Tech-Sterowniki plugin currently enjoy. A unified solution within the existing plugin would be more user-friendly and efficient.

Additional context: This enhancement would significantly improve the smart home experience for users who need comprehensive environmental control, making the Homebridge Tech-Sterowniki Platform Plugin not only a tool for temperature management but a complete climate control solution.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the author for developing this fantastic plugin. It has been instrumental in integrating Tech-Sterowniki devices into my HomeKit setup, and I greatly appreciate your efforts in creating and maintaining this project.
