📝 Walkthrough📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe pull request updates the TP-Link integration documentation in Home Assistant, focusing on expanding device support and clarifying technical details. The changes primarily involve adding new Tapo camera models (C100, C225, C325WB, C520WS), updating power strip models, and providing more detailed authentication and compatibility information. The documentation now includes specific guidance on camera integration, authentication requirements, and handling of unavailable entities. Changes

58-63: LGTM: Warning notes are clear and properly formattedThe notes effectively communicate important limitations and requirements. Consider adding a brief explanation of why enabling "Third-Party Compatibility" is necessary for better user understanding.
Some firmware versions of Tapo Cameras will not authenticate unless you enable **Tapo Lab** > **Third-Party Compatibility** in the native Tapo app. +This setting allows local access to the camera required by Home Assistant. Alternatively, you can factory reset and then prevent the device from accessing the internet.
95-99: LGTM: Camera section provides clear setup instructionsThe camera section effectively communicates setup requirements. Consider moving this section closer to the authentication warning note for better flow, as they are related topics.
Consider reorganizing the document to group related information:
- Move the camera section up, right after the authentication warning note
- Add a cross-reference between the two sections
