New sensor fo Azimut now supported.

- A new constant `WIND_AZIMUT` is added to allow creating a wind direction sensor that returns a text value from `UnitOfDir` instead of just a numeric degree value.

- The wind direction sensor entity now optionally creates both a numeric wind direction sensor using `WIND_DIR` and a text-based azimuth sensor using `WIND_AZIMUT`. If the numeric one is enabled, the text one will also be added.

So in summary, these changes improve the usability of wind data by adding a more human-readable text version alongside the existing numeric version.
