homebridge-homeconnect: Fridge freezer - Door Sensor cannot be renamed

Description of Issue

Added 3 new sensors for the Refridgerator Door, Chiller Common Door and Freezer Door. I see these added into HomeKit, however, I cannot rename the doors. As soon as I change it in HomeKit the name reverse back to “Fridge Freezer” for all the door sensors which makes it very hard to determine which door has been opened

Expected Behaviour

Doors should be named better but also have the ability to change the names like every other accessory I have, not sure why I can’t change the name of any of these sensors.

Steps to Reproduce

Added a BOSCH Fridge with the following settings:

“Door”: false, “Event Buttons”: true, “Internal Light”: true, “Freezer Super Mode”: true, “Fresh Mode”: true, “Refrigerator Super Mode”: true, “Vacation Mode”: true, “Eco Mode”: true, “Sabbath Mode”: false, “Ice Dispenser”: true, “Freezer Door”: true, “Chiller Common Door”: true, “Refrigerator Door”: true

I see the 3 door sensors listed in home, all are listed as “Fridge freezer”. When I try and rename them they instantly change back to “Fridge freezer”. I can’t tell the difference between the Refridgerator Door vs the two other doors. Not sure why I can’t rename them like I can with other accessories, the name just reverts back.
