Changes in this release

This release adds support for Insteon LED Backlights as a entity in Home Assistant. Its disabled by default but can be enabled for all Insteon devices that have LED backlights in the configuration. You can also enable and disable it individually in the customization file using the enable_led_backlight_light boolean config option. You can change if an individual device uses the newer kpl method or the older swl method using the backlight_set_mechansim config option. The kpl method is the default.

As well you can now enable or disable the battery sensors individually per device, using the enable_battery_sensor boolean config option.

For both of these features the config now just sets the default state, you can always control them with the customization. You can see the README for examples of these.
