HA Config Flow & Options

Use when adding or fixing config/option flows.

Quick start

• Guard single instance in async_step_user when appropriate.
• Validate inputs (interval mins, divisor ordering) with clear errors.
• Use standard OptionsFlow; do not override async_create_entry recursively.
• Register update listener in setup to reload platforms on option change.
