FR: Auto-config with (name) overrides #378

Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I've been using the card for a while now and I like it, but there's one thing with it that is a bit frustrating

My energy and power entities are setup in the energy dashboard, so auto config is perfect for me, except that some of the entity names I use in the energy dashboard are a bit too long in the sankey, especially when viewed horizontally.
So what I have to do is generate the auto config YAML, copy it into the card, and then edit or add shortened entity names where I need them.
That works fine, but then when I add or change an entity in the energy dashboard I have to go through the whole process again, re-generate the config yaml and re-customise it

Describe the solution you'd like
What I would like is the auto config option but with the ability to set some override display names for energy dashboard entities. That way I can have shorter names in the sankey for horizontal view and everything else comes automatically from the energy dashboard

Describe alternatives you've considered
Don't believe there is one, other than the manual edit process I am doing now
