Intergas InComfort -- Add "state_class" to entities for long-term statistics

[mgc8]

The problem

When using the "Intergas InComfort" integration, there are a number of interesting sensor entities created (temperature, pressure), however none of them has the required state_class configured, thus the data is only kept for a little time, then lost as soon as the database purge runs. Can we please have the correct state_class added to these entities, so that they are saved in the long-term statistics?

Hi @mib1185 ,

Not sure this is much of a "feature", just a missing parameter in the way the sensors are created. If I add it on the forum, I'm afraid it'll get buried under the many more pressing feature requests being discussed...

I'd be happy to create a patch and submit a PR for this, are there any requirements to be aware of apart from what is shown here?
