Add sensor with `HEATER_ERROR_CODE` to yaml example code? #5

Dear Smartavan Team,

This is rather not an issue but a question, and I hope that you don't mind that I put it here.

According to Fabian's documentation, his truma_inetbox component provides possible sensor types as shown below:

sensor:
  - platform: truma_inetbox
    name: "Current Room Temperature"
    type: CURRENT_ROOM_TEMPERATURE

The following type values are available:

    CURRENT_ROOM_TEMPERATURE
    CURRENT_WATER_TEMPERATURE
    TARGET_ROOM_TEMPERATURE
    TARGET_WATER_TEMPERATURE
    HEATING_MODE
    ELECTRIC_POWER_LEVEL
    ENERGY_MIX
    OPERATING_STATUS
    HEATER_ERROR_CODE

In your smartavan-heater-controller-truma.yaml example you do not seem to make use of the HEATER_ERROR_CODE. Is there a specific reason for it?

Users of the Smartavan heater controller could be interested to see the error code in case of a heater error. For this purpose, they would have to add that sensor in their (customized) smartavan-heater-controller-truma.yaml.

If my assumption is correct and this could be used, maybe you would like to update your example in this regard.

Thanks for your kind consideration. 👍

Best regards 7wells
