Update Broadlink controller

[felipediel]

Broadlink devices are now configured via config flow and broadlink.send is deprecated in favor of remote.send_command.
This update is necessary to keep things working after these changes.

So the time has come. I tried to avoid this for months because of the breaking change.
Thanks for your contribution. Really appreciate it.

Any idea when a RC will be available to test this out

[felipediel]

It is already merged into the dev branch. It may take a while to be released, as the master branch is 511 commits behind dev and these updates will be merged gradually. This is the master branch of the Broadlink integration. You can look into it to check if the updates from dev are already merged.

but the smartir component needs to be updated to use it

You can pull this update from my fork. But you have to wait for the configuration flow update to be released in Home Assistant, or you can pull it from the dev branch to be the first to test.

Hi, just to mention that I tried this PR together with home-assistant/core@a2c1f08 applied to home-assistant 0.114.4 and
mjg59/python-broadlink#407, mjg59/python-broadlink#410 and mjg59/python-broadlink#412 applied to python-broadlink with a RM4 mini (0x62bc) and it works great (it didn't work before).

Thanks for you hard work testing this update. I'm happy to know that it works for the RM4 series.
