Turn it up a notch. Or down.

Climate, water heaters, humidifiers, covers, valves and media players can now be nudged a step from wherever they are: climate.increase_temperature, cover.decrease_position, media_player.increase_volume and friends. Each works in the device's own units and stays inside its limits. Calendar events can be updated and deleted, and a to-do item moved to the top, the bottom, or after another one.

Two new helpers: Time in state (since when has this been on? "last motion" comes free) and Calibration (a sensor that is a bit off, corrected). The inverse helper now does covers and valves too, and flips a light or a toggle helper as well as a switch.

Four new triggers, for things an admin wants to hear about: an integration, a device or a user added, and a new device discovered. Two new repairs: a dashboard performing an action that does not exist, and a HomeKit bridge naming entities that are gone.

Most of the rest is making Spook more careful. An ignored repair stays ignored, even when what it reports changes. A fix looks again before it removes anything. Automations that are turned off are no longer reported; turn one back on and you hear about it right away. And the light actions no longer hang on lights whose integration does one thing at a time.

Heads up: timer.set_duration

It needs an admin now, like changing a timer in the settings does. Starting, pausing and cancelling a timer still works for everyone, and automations are not affected.

Thanks @snigehere, @Frankster-NL, @pathia, @ZakOyten, @DanfieldNet and @thomasgregg for reporting, and @thomasgregg for fixing it too. 🫶
