Samsung TV

UE43LS003 is seen as unparseable from the app and so it can't be added. It's a 2018 The Frame TV. With this PR I add it. @mmende

However. How is my iPhone getting updates and able to control the Samsung tv, sonoff devices when I’m not on the home network without any web hook? This is because the samsung tv and sonoff are talking to your apple tv via HomeKit protocol, and then your apple tv is connected to your apple id, so your iphone, which is under the same apple id, gets to control those from outside of your home network. This also means, probably undesirably, that the samsung tv and sonoff are *not* going through your homebridge.

I was wondering if there was any additional tricks or dummy switches or something that I could use to not turn on the lightstrip for when it does these updates. I also have a Hue motion sensor and Hue bedside lamps if that helps? Maybe something like if lamps are off and just the TV turns on, don’t turn on …

Older devices such as my 2010 C7700 may report a generic modelName 'Samsung DTV DMR'. The code change allows to use the manual configuration option (via usn) of the plugin. This will solve #56.
