Feature: Make Home Assistant API connection optional
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]
In some PCs, I only want to be able to get sensors and issue commands via MQTT, ie no need for HA API connection. In those cases, I don't want to open up an API connection (for security reasons, to avoid access to entities unnecessarily, ...). MQTT is the only interface I need.
Rather than configuring a non-working URL and/or API token, is it possible to have a configuration (eg tick a box) that allows me to disable the Home Assistant API (similar to the current ability to disable Local API. I don't know if there are any unintended effects of configuring non-working URL/API tokens, eg filling up logs with connection errors, etc

Provide an option to enable/disable Home Assistant API (similar to what is currently available for Local API)

Configuring non-working URL/API token, but unsure if this has any bad effects like filling up logs regularly with connection attempts.
