Description

ESPHome needs to tell Home Assistant what entities it has that would be good for the onboarding "wizard".

Things like:
- sendspin switches to allow the user to enable/disable sendspin and guest mode
- The ESPHome device might want entity ids from Home Assistant to watch their state for changes - eg for display devices that should show the temperature of the area it is in etc.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing how ESPHome currently communicates entity information to Home Assistant and how the onboarding wizard consumes it. Done should include an agreed mechanism for exposing controllable entities and receiving Home Assistant entity IDs for state monitoring.
