[WINDOWS11] Config file from web configuration tool for featherwing+s2 doesn't initialise PCF8523 RTC

[tyeth]

Just to be clear, this is a separate issue from the BME280 driver being initialised for a BME680, and is only about respecting the users manually copied config, and initialising the expected RTC.

ESP32-s2 feather + adalogger featherwing with battery and working sdcard (used before), BME680 attached.

Add config file to device, eject then reset device.

config (10).json

Serial monitor shows the following:

Next boot (reset button) results in auto config kicking off instead, and a BME280 driver being used (reports incorrect values), along with soft rtc:

It's definitely possible it's a parsing error, but seems ok.
This is what is saved by auto-config in its place:

  ]
}

Just a side comment as not the main issue (it's assumed the RTC would init), the BME680 was on a feather s2 with BME280 onboard, didn't notice at first, but it was conflicting with the 680.
Removing the 680 and replacing in config with a BME280 + tmp117, the RTC on the adalogger featherwing fails to init in the same way.
