[hdpowerview] Repeater support

[jlaur]

Repeaters can be added to the PowerView system to improve signal reception for shades too far away from the PowerView Hub (shades with power supplies unfortunately do not serve as repeaters). Repeaters don't do much except for repeating signals, but they are known by the Hub and they can be configured with blinking enabled/disabled as well as identied by flashing the LED. Furthermore, when performing a shade survey for signal strength, the ID of any used repeater is returned, which makes it possible to verify if any given shade is in fact using the repeater.

Supporting the Repeater as a thing would make it possible to:

• Enable/disable blinking during commands. For example this could be used to disable at night when repeater is in a bedroom.
• Flash repeater LED's on request. For example this could be used in combination with a motion sensor to provide position lighting at night.
• See firmware version information.
