Currently, the project builds an example project that makes use of a modified version of the ESP-IDF HomeKit SDK as a component. This results in static library files being generated which we can extract and link to our Arduino projects. Whilst this works, it's cumbersome and makes it difficult to make changes to configuration variables in the SDK.
This updated version makes use of PlatformIO's advanced scripting to clone the ESP-IDF HomeKit SDK repo and add the modifications for ESP-IDF v3.x. This'll result in the project using the library from source like most libraries and make it much easier to add build flags.
Using advanced scripting this way also means I don't need to host copies of the SDK's source in this repository, or in a fork, since the changes for the port are minimal.
The packages uploaded to PlatformIO's repository and used by the Arduino IDE will contain the complete library, as the build script will be run before packaging.
