Summary
This PR will hide any entities marked as 'hidden' using 2022.4's option for this from the Wear OS home screen (Areas / More entities lists).
These entities are still available when using the 'All entities' button and in other places in the app. This behavior is consistent with how the Wear OS app treats non-primary entities (#2216), and also mostly with frontend (not visible on autogenerated dashboards, but still available in the full list/search/automations UI/device page/...).
Because this might hide entities users are currently seeing on the app's home screen, this is a breaking change.
Resolves #2507
Screenshots
As an example, I've hidden a light named "Balk ✨", which you can see in HA's frontend: "(Hidden)" is shown after the entity name. Note the area name in the top-left of the screen.
When viewing this area in the Wear app, the light is not shown:
The light is still available in 'All entities':
