This removes redundant "usage" text from energy card titles and labels to improve UI clarity and prevent text wrapping issues. The context of being in the "Usage" tab makes these labels unnecessary.

Changes:
- Card titles: "Electricity usage" → "Electricity", "Individual devices total usage" → "Individual devices"
- Energy usage graph labels: "Consumed solar" → "Solar", "Consumed battery" → "Battery", "{num} kWh used" → "{num} kWh"
- Energy sources table: "Usage" → "Energy", "Previous usage" → "Previous energy"
- Energy devices graph: "Energy usage" → "Energy", "Previous energy usage" → "Previous energy"

Fixes https://github.com/orgs/home-assistant/discussions/2287
Simplifies the Sources table labels by removing redundant "total" text:
- "Grid total" → "Grid"
- "Gas total" → "Gas"
- "Solar total" → "Solar"
- "Water total" → "Water"
- "Battery total" → "Battery"

This keeps the labels clean and concise since the context makes it clear these are totals.
Changes "Sources" to "Costs" for the energy sources table card title.
The individual sources are already clear from the table rows, and the
card's bottom line shows "Total costs", so the title should reflect
that this card is primarily about costs.

did you see the suggestion (in Discord) I did on the tooltips?

Figured when cleaning up these titles and labels, the tooltips (being redundant because showing identical info) could be done in the same sweep
