Feature Request: Customizable forecast startday

[jo-me]

By default the card shows the forecast of the next 5 days - beginning with tomorrow.

I would like to begin with today. While I can already set the correct values if I begin with the “_0” values instead of “_1” in the config, the day names don’t reflect this.They start with FR (Friday) instead of today (Thursday).

IMO this is more elegant and space-saving than adding the same info above the forecast row. And predictions for more than 3 days in the future are inaccurate anyway.

Solution idea: allow config of a forecast start day (e.g. 0, 1, 2) and possible number of days so that the forecast shows e.g. today + 3 days or tomorrow + 4 days.

If you want to refactor a bit, you could think about removing the almost duplicate references to entity ids (.._0, .._1,...) and just have the user configure the prefix.
