Add ability to bypass a zone #12

Thanks for a terrific project. It is working well for me. I would love an option to bypass a zone. This would then be a complete replacement for RiscoCloud integration in HA for me. If it exists and I've missed it, my apologies!

I was also thinking about it. But I'm not sure how to map this notion to HA entities. Zones are mapped to binary_sensor in HA. I can't attach the toggle action to them directly. Should I introduce an additional companion switch for each zone ? https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/switch.mqtt/

Hi Yes, I think a companion switch for each zone would be a good idea. Currently I have lots of input booleans that bypass a zone when switch to on, and unbypass when switched to off. I reset all these to off once the alarm is unset as the bypass zone function only lasts until the alarm is next set/unset. Presumably this behaviour is also possible through MQTT? Best wishes Mark
