Do we need update settings and status at a time? status will be updated periodically, settings on init only.

Settings can be changed as well, not as frequently as status but still.

But we only use data from settings during init. I think we need the update_status method, and if we ever need to update the settings, we will add the update_settings method.

Done.
We can also consider using "cfg_changed_cnt" from status to know if a call to update settings is needed or not.

That's a good idea. We have to consider whether we are interested in changing the device configuration during HA operation.

Let's keep it for a later use, if needed.

Would be cool if we would automatically update settings if status contains a new config count. We should in that case rename the function name, as it's not just status that is being updated.
