Currently the history panel is extremely overloaded.
For example I have more than 10 temperature sensors and all of them are drawn on a single line graph.

I propose to add something like this to the history component config:

history:
  groups:
    name1:
      - entity_id1
      - entity_id2
    name2:
      - entity_id3

This will be exposed as /api/history/groups and used by the UI to add graphs.

WDYT?

interesting idea. I'm not opposed.

I would prefer if we could do something automatic. But I guess we do that now and it sucks 🤔
