Request: Make the summary entity (sensor.uptimekuma_status_<instance>) entity available as a binary_sensor. #93

I've been having challenges using the summary entity in ESPHome because it requires numeric values for sensor state. And ESPHome can't access entity attributes.

This would also allow them to be used in Groups and simplify automation logic on the Home Assistant side.

Thanks!

Also, this entity cannot be assigned to an Area, as it lacks a unique ID and gives an error when trying to do so.
