Add support for automation description#3723

I really love this idea. Both for this particular use case of remembering logic in your personal automations, but also for the future if we get automation sharing, this would be a great way to describe your shared automation to the community. I'm just not sure that everyone will know what "Annotation" means? I know it's the correct word but I think that "Description", "Note", or "Comment" might be more easily understandable to a wider group of people IMO. Also I think that the label and/or placeholder text should make clear that it's optional too. |

We might have to do one more frontend release for the final release. As this PR relies on backend code that is not in tomorrows release , we should not merge this yet. |
When using the automation editor, any manually added comments are wiped.
Allow adding
descriptionstring to the automation instead, with the same purpose as a comment.Depends on backend PR: home-assistant/core#26662
