Fix Options 500: async_get_options_flow must be synchronous

- HA calls async_get_options_flow directly (no await); an async def returned a coroutine -> AttributeError 500 when opening entry Options

+- **Opening entry Options returned "500 / Config flow could not be
+  loaded"**: `async_get_options_flow` was declared `async def`, but Home
+  Assistant invokes it synchronously and expects the flow instance; an
+  un-awaited coroutine caused the 500. The hook is now a plain
+  (non-async) static method, so the Users & measurements menu opens.
