Clarify which name to put in devices (#11715)
* Clarify which name to but in devices When setting up Automatic, I found it confusing which name to put in the `devices` section, and put the nickname in, which broke the integration. Added a note to clarify for future users. * Resolve @frenck suggestions. Yeah, I figured the tone was a bit too playful. Figured I'd give it a go though.

The device name must be the name given by Automatic automatically. This is typically the model year, make and model. This is *not* the nickname you have to give the vehicle in the `vehicles` section of the app's settings.

Home Assistant will also fire events when an update is received from Automatic. These can be used to trigger automations, as shown in the example below. A list of available event types can be found in the [Automatic Real-Time Events documentation](https://developer.automatic.com/api-reference/#real-time-events).
