Description

Currently there is no way to manually trigger a firmware update for the powerwall. It would be nice to add a feature for the powerwall much like you currently have for the car (update.my_car_software_update).

Contributor guide

Research direction
Look at the existing implementation for car software update (update.my car software update) to understand the pattern. Then explore Tesla API endpoints for Powerwall firmware updates, possibly via Tesla's local or cloud API. Implement a similar service and sensor for Powerwall.
