Mention possibility to support a "stop" group address.
My KNX device has a "start" (down/up) and a "stop" group address. It works perfectly if I enter the "start" group address in "move_long_address" and "stop" in "move_short_address". However, I only found out because I found issue #10624.

The `knx` cover platform is used as in interface with KNX covers.
The `knx` component must be configured correctly, see [KNX Component](/components/knx).
To use your KNX covers in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
cover:
- platform: knx
name: "Kitchen.Shutter"
move_long_address: '3/0/0'
move_short_address: '3/0/1'
position_address: '3/0/3'
position_state_address: '3/0/2'
travelling_time_down: 51
travelling_time_up: 61
```
Configuration variables:
- **name** (*Optional*): A name for this device used within Home Assistant.
- **move_long_address**: KNX group address for moving the cover full up or down.
- **move_short_address** (*Optional*): KNX group address for moving the cover short time up or down. If the KNX device has a stop group address you can use that here.
- **position_address** (*Optional*): KNX group address for moving the cover to the dedicated position.
- **position_state_address** (*Optional*): Separate KNX group address for requesting the current position of the cover.
- **angle_address** (*Optional*): KNX group address for moving the cover to the dedicated angle.
- **angle_state_address** (*Optional*): Separate KNX group address for requesting the current angle of cover.
- **travelling_time_down** (*Optional*): Time cover needs to travel down in seconds. Needed to calculate the intermediate positions of cover while traveling. Defaults to 25.
- **travelling_time_up** (*Optional*): Time cover needs to travel up in seconds. Needed to calculate the intermediate positions of cover while traveling. Defaults to 25.
- **invert_position** (*Optional*): Set this to true if your actuator report fully closed as 100%.
- **invert_angle** (*Optional*): Set this to true if your actuator reports tilt fully closed as 100%.
