Add network_key configuration (#2828)

Browse Source 
* Add network_key configuration

Network key can be set here rather than in the (difficult to find) configuration `options.xml`. It takes the same comma separated "0xNN" string syntax as previous.

* Cleanup unneeded section

Removed the options.xml information that is on longer required as per comments from @dale3h

Configuration variables:
- **usb_path** (*Optional*): The port where your device is connected to your Home Assistant host.
- **network_key** (*Optional*): The 16 byte network key in the form `"0x01,0x02..."` used in order to connect securely to compatible devices.
- **config_path** (*Optional*): The path to the Python OpenZWave configuration files. Defaults to the 'config' that is installed by python-openzwave
- **autoheal** (*Optional*): Allows disabling auto Z-Wave heal at midnight. Defaults to True.
- **polling_interval** (*Optional*): The time period in milliseconds between polls of a nodes value. Be careful about using polling values below 30000 (30 seconds) as polling can flood the zwave network and cause problems.

### {% linkable_title Adding Security Devices %}
Security Z-Wave devices require a network key before being added to the network using the `zwave.add_node_secure` service. You must edit the `options.xml` file, located in your `python-openzwave config_path` to use a network key before adding these devices.
Edit your `options.xml` file:
```bash
<!-- <Option name="NetworkKey" value="0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07, 0x08, 0x09, 0x0A, 0x0B, 0x0C, 0x0D, 0x0E, 0x0F 0x10" /> -->
```
Uncomment the line:
```bash
<Option name="NetworkKey" value="0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07, 0x08, 0x09, 0x0A, 0x0B, 0x0C, 0x0D, 0x0E, 0x0F, 0x10" />
```
You can replace these values with your own 16 byte network key. For more information on this process see the [OpenZwave](https://github.com/OpenZWave/open-zwave) wiki article [Adding Security Devices to OZW](https://github.com/OpenZWave/open-zwave/wiki/Adding-Security-Devices-to-OZW)
Security Z-Wave devices require a network key before being added to the network using the `zwave.add_node_secure` service. You must set the *network_key* configuration variable to use a network key before adding these devices.
