Pull request overview
This PR adds documentation for new sensor functionality in the NuHeat integration. The changes document two new sensors (heating time and energy consumption) and explain how to configure the integration to calculate energy usage from floor specifications.
Changes:
- Added sensor platform support to the integration metadata
- Documented two new sensors: heating time and energy consumption
- Added configuration instructions for calculating energy from floor specifications

The sentence 'lets you control' should flow better. Consider rephrasing to: 'The NuHeat {% term integration %} allows you to control your connected...' for a more natural, conversational tone that aligns with the friendly writing style.

| When floor area is configured, energy is calculated as: `floor_area × watt_density × heating_minutes / 60 / 1000`. |

The formula should explain what the division operations represent for clarity. Consider rephrasing to: 'When floor area is configured, energy is calculated as: floor_area × watt_density × heating_minutes / 60 (minutes to hours) / 1000 (watts to kilowatts)' or adding a brief explanation after the formula.
| When floor area is configured, energy is calculated as: `floor_area × watt_density × heating_minutes / 60 / 1000`. | |
| When floor area is configured, energy is calculated as: `energy_kwh = floor_area × watt_density × heating_minutes / 60 / 1000`, where `/ 60` converts minutes to hours, and `/ 1000` converts watts to kilowatts. |
Proposed change
The Nuheat API has the number of minutes the floor was on, which can be used to calculate an estimated energy usage. If the settings have been set on the Nuheat server, it will use that to calculate the energy usage, but if not, they can be provided in Home Assistant settings.
