the heart_beat_point setting is part of RemoteConfig. The previous driver configured this in the outer layer of the device configuration (DeviceConfig). The new configuration also requires "devices/rest/of/topic", where the old configuration only wanted a point name.

- Make the configuration optionally in the device or the remote config, like driver_type?
- Allow just the point name and derive the topic if it is not provided?
