Added a line clarifying One switch control (#6442)

Browse Source 
just to make it clear that one Generic Thermostat can only control one switch at a time.  If you have 2 switches to control (heat/AC) then you will need 2 Thermostats.

The `generic_thermostat` climate platform is a thermostat implemented in Home Assistant. It uses a sensor and a switch connected to a heater or air conditioning under the hood. When in heater mode, if the measured temperature is cooler then the target temperature, the heater will be turned on and turned off when the required temperature is reached. When in air conditioning mode, if the measured temperature is hotter then the target temperature, the air conditioning will be turned on and turned off when required temperature is reached.

One Generic Thermostat entity can only control one switch. If you need to activate two switches, one for a heater and one for an air conditioner, you will need two Generic Thermostat entities.
