Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I am a simple user of the Battery Plus integration - my main usage of it is for tracking battery changes via automations.

I am a big fan of the Home Assistant automatically generated Summary Views.

The problem that I am facing, is that Battery Plus shows up in duplicate (sometimes triplicate) in the auto generated Maintenance dashboard.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like to see a global option similar to the hiding of the standard battery entity that would allow me to hide / disable the binary_sensor(s) and sensor(s) for battery plus low - just leaving the battery plus battery sensors remaining

Describe alternatives you've considered

Hiding all of the individual sensor entities for each device - in a house with 10's of devices - this is quite time consuming and counter intuitive to what I feel the goal of this integration is (simple battery management). There's also the issue of new devices being found by the integration and being able to remember to hide the new entries each time.
