* add supporting info for 2nd gen august lock

2nd Gen August Lock needs to have the August Connect Module to be able to talk to home-assistant. If you have Doorbell then you don't need to have Connect. Just trying to help people troubleshoot in case they don't know whats going wrong.

The august component allows you to integrate your August devices in Home Assistant. Currently this component supports August Lock and Doorbell.

August Lock 2nd Gen will need either August Connect or Doorbell to connect to Home Assistant.

{% linkable_title Configuration %}

You will need your August login information (username (either phone# or email), and password) to use this module.

To set it up, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
august:
  login_method: phone
  username: "+16041234567"
  password: YOUR_PASSWORD

{% configuration %} login_method: description: Method to login to your August account, either "email" or "phone". A verification code will be sent to your email or phone during setup. required: true type: string username: description: The username for accessing your August account. This depends on your login_method, if login_method is email, this will be your email of the account. Otherwise, this will be your phone number. required: true type: string password: description: The password for accessing your August account. required: true type: string timeout: description: Timeout to wait for connections. required: false type: int default: 10 {% endconfiguration %}

Once Home Assistant is started, a configurator will pop up asking you to enter verification code that is sent to your phone number or email.
