Release v3.1.7 is required for HA 2025.9 (but still works with 2025.8)

[WillCodeForCats]

Release v3.1.7 is required for HA 2025.9 due to a change with an import for pymodbus.

This release still supports earlier versions of Home Assistant and all users can (and should) update to v3.1.7 if you're like me and don't immediately update to the first .0 release of HA. This means if you want to wait or need to roll back HA to 2025.8 for any reason, this integration will continue to work.

For more information see PR #897 and #896.

My approach is to avoid locking releases to a certain version of Home Assistant. At some point I will set a new minimum version since HA does depreciate/improve internal API over time, but I don't want to force people to upgrade their HA immediately to get the latest release if I don't have to.
