@sjeffrey101 suggested;

remove all the master on/off power_target - this should be achievable through automations, rather then in the component.
fire an event when trying to turn on a zone (so an automation can turn on the smart power socket)

Discussions in #25 suggest we may keep this functionality.

this has now been resolved.

a new class, for the controller has been created, which has a callback for when the first zone is requested power or the last zone is turned off.

on the ha side there is a power handler class which then responds to the call back and turned the smart plug on/off.

there is a delay of 60 seconds to turn off so its not turning the mains power on/off repeatedly.
