Create Home Assistant repairs for Frigate issues

[felipecrs]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I don't open the Frigate UI often, but I open my Home Assistant multiple times a day.

It would be great if I could get "notified" of issues in my Frigate instance directly in Home Assistant.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be great if the integration created Home Assistant Repairs for the issues in Frigate, like some camera unavailable.

Or even when the recordings directory is unavailable (blakeblackshear/frigate#19505).

Describe alternatives you've considered
To check them in the Frigate UI.

Additional context
I suppose this concept of issues is already part of Frigate itself, and this data would just need to be pulled by the integration. I have seen something like My Camera unavailable in the bottom-right corner of the Frigate UI:

I'd suggest holding off, we have plans to rework and add a new feature similar to repairs within frigate itself

Would be nice if non existent entities also cleaned up when you changed configuration like when removing or renaming zones.

I think you should create a separate issue for it.

I think it is relevant to the repairs feature in HA really, this is the type of thing that I get popups for in other integrations when entities get orphaned etc..

[felipecrs]

Interesting. I never received a pop-up like that. Some reference implementation would be nice.

Looks like you can find the repair items for any HA core component by search the repo for "async_create_issue"

This one detects if it doesn't have permission to display certain entities anymore.

This one removed deprecated Reolink entities might be the most relevant for cleaning up abandon entities.

Very cool!
