Entites created by the Tellstick platform/addon should be assigned unique ids which they currently are not.
All switches, lights and sensors in the Tellstick configuration are required to have a unique id. This unique id could be used as the home assistant unique id. This would allow us to handle the entities in the ui.

Seems that it is not yet in the official release channel. I still have the issue with having entities with non unique IDs.

Well, the PR was merged a year ago, so I don’t know why it isn’t working yet or what’s the hold up.

## Proposed change
Add a `unique_id` to the tellstick devices. This allows them to be updated from the UI.
Also moved `name`, `should_poll` and `assumed_state` to `attr_*` properties.
