0.33: New Calendar component, Wink thermostats and Cisco IOS

For this release we put a lot of focus on finishing our async upgrade and fix a bunch of bugs in the process.

But a new release wouldn’t be awesome if it didn’t had some new goodies and this release is no different. This release includes a new calendar component by @mnestor. It comes now with Google Calendar support, which should allow you to automate things based on your calendar events!

Release 0.33.3 - November 23

• Fix discovery race condition (most obvious in Wemo) (@balloob)

Release 0.33.4 - November 24

This should fix occasional performance problems that some people have reported.

Backward-incompatible changes

• We have included a fix that impacts how we generate entity ids. This only impacts devices with accented characters. Instead of being stripped out, they are now replaced with the non-accented version. So now Tèst Mörê will become test_more instead of tst_mr.
• Command line switches will now use the specified object ID for their entity ID instead of basing it off the name.
