The main features of the upgrade to 0.1.3 of rtl_433_ESP are
1 - Change Transceiver Library to RadioLib
2 - Add support for SX127X transceiver module ( I used the 433 Mhz version of this Heltec module for development ).
3 - Added automatic calibration of the RSSI Signal detection Threshold
4 - Removed dependency on loop for start and end of signal detection, and moved to a ESP32 Task
5 - Moved received signal decoding to a ESP32 Task
6 - Identified Blueline PowerCost Monitor decoder as source of significant memory overhead and disabled.
7 - Multi Receiver support has been validated with RF, RF2 and PiLight
* Publishing/receiving inconsistencies
* General platformio.ini changes
General platformio.ini changes to allow for publishing/receiving settings to be defined in User_cofig.h instead of them only working if defined in the environments. Kept separate so far for discussion.
* PR #934
* Active Receiver Switching
Switching of the active receiver module is available between the RF,
RF2, RTL_433 and Pilight Gateway modules, allowing for changing of
signal decoders without redploying the openMQTTGateway package.
Sending a JSON message to the command topic of the desired receiver
will change the active receiver module.
Other minor adjustments/improvements
1 - Improved startup serial logging that includes
- OpenMQTTGateway Version
- OpenMQTTGateway Modules
2 - Trace logging of full Gateway module command topic
- Enabled in RF, RF2, PiLight and RTL_433
3 - Updated RTL_433 Documentation to only include enabled ASK/OOK
device decoders
4 - Trace logging of MQTT Callback topic
* Regression testing
* Adding valueAsASubject support to rtl_433_ESP
- model and id keys are appended to message topic
* Increased memory size for receiver switching in blocking build all

Create automatically devices into Home Assistant through MQTT auto discovery
Before, only entities were created automaticaly and they were not linked to a device.
* Add Home Assistant auto discovery feature
Add HA auto discovery to RF2.
For each unique combination of unit, groupbit and address a switch will be added to Home Assistant called: "RF2_[unit]_[groupbit])_[address].
As RF2 433Mhz switches do not render their state, no state topic will be provided in the discovery.
This will cause the switch to be in optimistic mode in HA with separate on and off icons.
The two separate on/off icons allow for subsequent on commands to support the dimming feature of KAKU switches like ACM-300.
