Description

### The problem

Adding UPS power consumption to the energy panel would be awesome. The integration could easily provide it as it already provides max load and percentage of use. That would provide instant consumption. Then with a riemann integral we could get kw/h.

Research direction

Start with the apccupsd integration documentation and inspect how it currently exposes maximum load and percentage of use. Add the missing power-consumption sensors so the values can appear in the energy panel and support the requested consumption calculation.
