Support of non binary sensors #957

Checklist

Proposal

There are sensors for windows that report the current position of a window handle. Theres sensors are no binary_sensors, since they do report the state: "closed", "open" or "tilted". I would like to use those sensors in Alarmo, since the binary sensor would report a window as closed, if it is leaning, but the handle is not closed.

The only solution right now would be, to create a binary_sensor template, which will report an "open" state for the "Open" or "Tilted" state of the origin sensor. Having such sensor support natively in alarmo would allow a more precise configuration.
