Feature - Change unique id from device_name to something really unique.

See original GitHub issue

We can either use this endpoint or as @leikoilja mentioned, we can generate one in glocaltokens.

What do you guys think is the best option?

Original: Right now we use device_name in entity unique id. I think glocaltokens can provide some real device specific id for the device. Then HA should handle renames itself.
