EMHASS version 0.2.3

In this release support for passing list of values to the different forecasting methods was added. This will allow users of the add-on to easily transfer their own forecasting values from other Home Assistant services.
Another important change is the dropout of any forecasting method from PVLib, as these methods were marked as deprecated in the latest version of PVLib. Of course PVLib will stll be used to convert weather data to electrical power.
Finally the documentation was updated.

Added

• Improved support for the new add-on and direct communication via the supervisor.
• The CLI now can return the version using the --version argument.
• Improved comments in forecast class.
• Added unittest for csv method for weather forecast.
• Added support for passing lists of values to all forecasting methods.

Fix

• Removed dependency from PVLib Forecast class, as it has been marked as deprecated.
• Fixed failing docs builds due to uncompatible jinja2 an markupsafe versions.
