Support for Ecobee Switch+

I wanted to create an issue here as I've been trying to get the Ecobee switch+ integrated into HA for quite some time and I know there are many others. I decided to just see what the Ecobee site did with switch state which lead me to file this after checking the Hass code : nkgilley/python-ecobee-api#35

It also looks like the py library we are using hasn't been updated on our end at least for a few releases.

It looks like we are blocked until (nkgilley/python-ecobee-api#35) is resolved by adding support for calling new api end points to get the switch device meta data and patch end points. Then we can just poll for changes like how we do for the thermostats.
