"ssl.TLSVersion = tls_version" in deye_config.py breaks modules using urllib3 (problem for plugin development)

[MaikNeubert]

Hello,

I am currently developing a plugin to write data directly to InfluxDB. Because you directly manipulate the TSLVersion object from the SSL module, this breaks compatibility with probably a lot of modules that make requests over HTTP(S), such as the InfluxDB Python client, resulting in errors like

AttributeError: '_SSLMethod' object has no attribute 'TLSv1_2'.

This, at least for me, is a big problem for plugin development. In this issue, I would kindly ask if we could investigate a better solution that does not involve manipulating the SSL module directly.

I would also be ready to investigate the project and try to find a solution next month if you accept external contributions. I can then try to make a proposal here, and if you accept, maybe create a PR.

class DeyeMqttTlsConfig:
    def __init__(
        self,
        enabled: bool = False,
        ca_cert_path: str = "",
        client_cert_path: str = "",
        client_key_path: str = "",
        tls_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2,
        insecure=False,
    ):
        self.enabled = enabled
        self.__ca_cert_path = ca_cert_path
        self.__client_cert_path = client_cert_path
        self.__client_key_path = client_key_path
        ssl.TLSVersion = tls_version # problamatic solution
        self.insecure = insecure

Of course. Contributions are welcome.
