Proposal for unified development tools and environment

[EuleMitKeule]

To improve the stability and code quality of the integration and to increase the chances of getting this merged into core I would propose implementing a unified development environment and choose a set of tools and conventions to be used.

pyproject.toml

• We should create a pyproject.toml file that can be used to configure dev tools and package settings as well as dependencies

Dependencies and Dependency Management

• There should be a common solution for dependency management
• We could use poetry together with a pyproject.toml file
• The integration should depend on the homeassistant package for code completion and analysis

Formatting and Linting

• I can strongly recommend using ruff
• ruff provides blazingly fast linting and code analysis and unifies dev tools for linting, formatting and import sorting and is compatible with VS Code via https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=charliermarsh.ruff

Static Type Checking

• mypy could be used to perform static type checking
• This increase the visibility of and reduce bugs in the code
• mypy also works with VS Code via https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=matangover.mypy

VS Code Settings

• VS Code can then be configured to automatically recommend the extensions mentioned above and perform code formatting automatically

Pre-Commit

• We could use pre-commit to enforce the rules set by the tools and our configuration before committing
• ruff will automatically fix issues when committing

As I frequently implement and use this kind of development environment I would be happy to set it up for this repository if you would like me to.

That sounds great!
I'll welcome that :)
