[HomeKit bridge integration] Devices have lowercased names upon restarting home assistant, but forcefully resending HomeKit bridge data makes them properly synchronized again #159975
Description
The problem
Every time home assistant is restarted (either via the web UI from settings or restarting the container or even rebooting the host) all entities that are exposed to HomeKit change their names to be lowercased.
Doing force synchronization of entities via either adding a new entity to HomeKit bridge integration or removing an entity from it updates the names to be properly displayed again.
