New class has various improvements and now uses the inverter's native watt-hour units.

Backwards compatibility note: units have been removed from the energy (kWh) sensor names and entity names. This will affect new users to the integration that use templates intended for older versions. Upgrading as an existing user does not change existing entity names.

The decision to use fixed units in kWh predates the ability for Home Assistant users to select display precision and dynamically convert between units in a supported sensor class. But now that users can change the units and precision in the UI, having "kwh" in the sensor name is no longer appropriate and possibly inaccurate.
