Alexa Media TTS support

See original GitHub issue

Hi, For the alexa_media_player custom component we’re about to deprecate our media_player.alexa_tts service in the next version or so 1.2.0 and I wanted to give you a heads up since you support that service call for our users.

Instead of the old service, the new default service should be: notify.alexa_media. The json data will be

{
"message":"test",
"data":{"type":"tts"},
"target":["media_player.kitchen"]
}

We’ll likely deprecate the service after one full release cycle to confirm parity between notify and media_player.alexa_tts.

Yes. It will support both a string and an array of strings. FYI, we released 1.2.0 and will keep the old service till 1.3.0.
