This Breaking Change affects a few components:
Deprecate conf_update_interval (@rohankapoorcom - #20924 ) (breaking change) (beta fix)
It scraps update_interval in favor of the more widely used scan_interval. If you’re using components configured with the option update_interval you’re probably affected by this change.

## Description:
As noticed in #20526 , `CONF_UPDATE_INTERVAL` and `CONF_SCAN_… INTERVAL` serve identical purposes and `CONF_SCAN_INTERVAL` is used a lot more.
Now that we have a clean way to deprecate configs without causing breaking changes, (#20565) we can clean this up.
`CONF_UPDATE_INTERVAL` has been deprecated in 0.88 and is set to become invalid in 0.91 (three versions out). In 0.92, we can go ahead and do a final cleanup since all users should have migrated over by then.
**Breaking Change:** `update_interval` has been deprecated and replaced with `scan_interval` in all components and platforms. This is a soft deprecation in this release and will automatically become a hard breaking change in Home Assistant version 0.91.0.
**Pull request in [home-assistant.io](https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant.io) with documentation (if applicable):** home-assistant/home-assistant.io#8603
~~I need to go through all of these components/platforms and update the documentation.~~
