Lots of Changes...

added ascii serial number reading. documentation for s/n might be wrong, so it could appear backwards for some inverters... just needs to be unique.
added eg4 protocol
cleaned up the Growatt V1.24 protocol a bit
added protocol analyzer feature - needs more work. u
added bit_flag data type for bit / binary flag handling.
added sub-byte data reading. ie, 1 bit, 2bit, 3bits ect...
added registry read optimization to reduce the number of registers read. potentially increasing refresh rate especially for larger protocols.

because of the serial number change. if you've setup / installed a previous version, you will have to remove the mqtt device from home assistant, and then run the updated version. so you don't end up with duplicate entires.
