Minor changes (#5990)

Taking out the "new and experimental" note - we're a dozen releases on, it's hardly new and seems to be (from a feature sense) stable.

Re-written para 2 to reflect that HA needs shut down, and that 0.75 introduced the "future" UI. Re-written the supported components list because it's horribly out of date, and without trawling the code it's impossible to know what's supported.

<p class='note'>
This is a new and experimental feature of Home Assistant.
</p>
Starting with version 0.63, Home Assistant keeps a registry of known entities.
The entity registry makes sure that entities get unique identifiers and allow
customizing the identifiers and names of these entities.
As this is still a very new part of Home Assistant, changes will require a
restart of Home Assistant to take effect. A config user interface will be added
in a future version.
Changes require that Home Assistant is shut down when you edit the file, otherwise
Home Assistant may over-write your changes, and a restart of Home Assistant is
required for your changes to take effect. Version 0.75 introduced a configuration
user interface.
<p class='note'>
An entity needs to have a unique ID to be registered in the entity registry.
