Roku Integration - Literal Characters

[PRProd]

The problem

Cannot send literal characters to Roku using the Roku Integration

The Roku Remote Integration Documentation lists several options, including one named literal. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way to use this through the HA integration.

The roku API does properly respond when using curl

curl -d '' http://192.168.107.214:8060/keypress/Lit_h
curl -d '' http://192.168.107.214:8060/keypress/Lit_i

I have researched as many places as I could think of, and used the guess/check method to try to make it work with the integration, but I think it might actually be broken.

@ctalkington - Any insight you have here would be extremely helpful. Thanks

[ctalkington]

we can support this upstream, just need to allow the Lit_ and pass it through. Right now it's a white-list of known commands
