Subject: [PATCH] Start the 5.0 integration when it is installed next to 4.x

Version 5.0 uses the domain gree_custom and moves the 4.x devices over
when it starts. Home Assistant only sets up an integration that has a
config entry or a YAML key, and after an update through HACS gree_custom
has neither. HACS also leaves custom_components/gree in place, so this
version still runs after the update.

async_setup now starts gree_custom when it is installed. Nothing happens
when it is not. This makes the move to 5.0 work without user action for
everyone who updates to this release first.
