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

I'm migrating from a custom esphome component to using btproxy. My previous setup used to have plenty of diagnostic sensors which are read from Nuki lock. The readings are coming "for free" along with information already required for the integration to function correctly - they just wait there to be parsed and presented. Examples if them are: battery voltage, rotation degrees for latest lock, night mode, battery drain for latest lock action, RSSI, clock skew etc.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice to keep the diagnostics, which I'd happily contribute to this project if @ronengr has interest in having them here!

Would probably be most sensible to have those diagnostic sensors disabled (or at least hidden) by default so they don't flood the dashboards.

Describe alternatives you've considered

stay on esphome custom component, which seems like a waste of maintenance resource
live without diagnostic sensors, which seems like a waste of useful debug information
