Does not support EP40: Outside outlet device with two switched outlets.

[dwilliams459]

Thanks for this repo! It does not seem to work with the outside plug EP40 with two switches. Refer to the draft pull request to see my attempt to get this to work. Documentation found https://community.home-assistant.io/t/tp-link-kasa-kp400-2-outlet-support/113135/9 suggests adding a 'context' node like:
{"system":{"set_relay_state":{"state":0}},"context":{"child_ids":["000000000000000000000000"]}}.
This did not seem to work for me, however it may be close to the correct solution.
Draft PR: #10
I have not tried lostmsu's power strip solution in from PR #3.

A generous donor is providing an EP40 for testing and development. Thanks for the documentation and pull requests, we'll get it working one way or another.

Received the EP40. Here is a sample of a command to turn on outlet 1.

{
    "context" : {
        "child_ids" : [ "800648C61B22DD1DE8AFD8858B29192022087E7200" ],
        "source" : "46a4d58b-6279-432c-ae23-e115c2db8354"
    },
    "system" : {
        "set_relay_state" : {
            "state" : 1
        }
    }
}

Outlet 2 is the same but uses the other child ID from the children array returned by get_sysinfo:

{
    "system" : {
        "get_sysinfo" : {
            "alias" : "EP40",
            "child_num" : 2,
            "children" : [
                {
                    "alias" : "Plug 1",
                    "id" : "800648C61B22DD1DE8AFD8858B29192022087E7200",
                    "next_action" : {
                        "type" : -1

                    "on_time" : 0,
                    "state" : 0
                },
                {
                    "alias" : "hv",
                    "id" : "800648C61B22DD1DE8AFD8858B29192022087E7201",
                    "next_action" : {
                        "type" : -1
                    },
                    "on_time" : 0,
                    "state" : 0
                }
            ],
            "deviceId" : "800648C61B22DD1DE8AFD8858B29192022087E72",

Renaming an individual outlet:

{
    "context": {
        "child_ids": [
            "800648C61B22DD1DE8AFD8858B29192022087E7201"
        ],
        "source": "46a4d58b-6279-432c-ae23-e115c2db8354"
    },
    "system": {
        "set_dev_alias": {
            "alias": "plug2"
        }
    }
}

This library is working with the EP40 on the ep40 branch. The context.child_ids approach works fine.

The high-level API is backwards compatible with version 1.0 of this library, so I plan to release this as 1.1. A new KasaMultiOutlet class was added with an IKasaMultiOutlet interface, with some new methods that take a leading outlet index argument. The library is still typesafe based on which class is constructed.

Example usage:

using IKasaMultiOutlet ep40 = new KasaMultiOutlet("192.168.1.100");
ep40.System.SetOutletOn(0, true); // turn on the first outlet

The readme documentation has been updated, but more XML documentation is required in the C# files.

I have tested the system commands successfully, but not the timer or schedule commands yet. I also updated the device firmware from factory version 1.0.3 to the latest version 1.0.4 and haven't noticed any differences yet.

Added all XML documentation, published as prerelease version 1.1.0-beta1 on NuGet Gallery.
