Added hidden_string and sensor_string properties to the isy994 configuration to allow nodes to be hidden and to be handled as sensors. Implimented the sensor_string. Any node name that contains the sensor_string in its name will be treated as a sensor instead of a switch or light. The hidden_string will be implimented later.
