Wrong data type for temperature presets

[pes001]

The problem

When setting the "generic thermostat" helper, it is not possible to set a float number for comfort_temp, away_temp, sleep_temp, etc. presets, (for example 22.5) but only an integer, although the documentation specifies the float data type.
