Issue # 114 - add unit test for multi-climate VTherm

without these parenthesis the `action` and therefore returned `hvac_action` seems to be `True` instead of i.e. `heating`
(did not see that when using an underlying homekit devices climate device, but when the underlying was a generic thermostat)

 This thermostat can control 2 types of equipment:
 1. a heater that only works in on/off mode (named ```thermostat_over_switch```). The minimum configuration required to use this type of thermostat is:
-   has. equipment such as a radiator (a ```switch``` or equivalent),
-   b. a temperature probe for the room (or an input_number),
-   vs. an external temperature sensor (think about weather integration if you don't have one)

     2. If you don't have a window/door sensor in your room, just leave the sensor entity id blank,
     3. **Only one mode is allowed**. You cannot configure a thermostat with a sensor and automatic detection. The 2 modes may contradict each other, it is not possible to have the 2 modes at the same time,
     4. It is not recommended to use the automatic mode for equipment subject to frequent and normal temperature variations (corridors, open areas, ...)

 ## Configure the activity mode or motion detection
 If you choose the ```Motion management``` feature, lick on 'Validate' on the previous page and you will get there:
