Adding Tilt Functionalty #44

Description

@mem10123

Thanks so much to @sillyfrog for creating and maintaining this!

I just got a batch of 8 motorized Ventian (horizontal wood) blinds from The Shade Store, which "support" both Tilt and Lift. Via the remote it's a matter of jogging the up/down button as it reverses direction. Via the Shade Store official app it doesn't work at all. However, via the "Automate" app (created I think from the motor manufacturer, Rollease Alameda), it does allow me to add a blind type of "Ventians Lift/Tilt" (this is missing in the Shade Store app). So perhaps this is new functionality? Also, I bought the Shade Store "Pro" hub, but as it's White, I suspect it's really just the Version 2 hub they're mislabelling. (Don't get me started on TSS issues I've had...)

Anyhow, I was wondering if it'd be possible to get this integration to support that Tilt function? From the Home Assistant Script Creation, if I select "Cover" as the type, it presents options to control Tilt, but won't let me add the Devices (I assume because they are not advertising that they have the functionality). Hoping this might be something simple, but I don't know all that goes into all the underlying communications.

Thanks!
