Installed Version - Feature Request

[walberjunior]

I would like to have a way to track the current version installed on the router.

Maybe create a sensor inside the HA containing the "ap_name" - "Version" And maybe a parameter inside presence-detector.settings.json to disable this option for those who don't want it:

   "version": false/true

It seems possible to create a device+entity in HA through the REST api. I'll look into it when I have more time.

@walberjunior This has been added to the latest version in main. The entity name in HA will be .presence_detector_version. If ap_name is not set, it will default to "openwrt_router"

Thanks

@rmoesbergen I tested this version but got an error.
