shellyannouncegen2 issue

[Spartacus68]

Describe the bug

This is not really a bug!! When HA starts, shelly announce is triggerd but not all devices will be dicovered with the current state, some will report "unknown". Also the H&T devices will not get the correct values at once.

Expected behavior

the expectation is that all shelly devices will be discovered with the correct state when HA starts. If shelly announce is triggered manually after a while (3-5min), all shelly states will be recovered correctly and H&T devices will get the values. Maybe it will help, if shelly announce will be delayed after HA is fully startet. For me it looks like, that HA is not completely ready when shelly announce it triggered.

Check the discovery automation traces to see if it executes correctly after HA starts. Some HA instances have problems with this and need to add a delay to the announce automation.
