Description:
This component allows to connect an esphome device to the 'HDMI CEC' control bus.
On that bus, it can issue and receive commands to/from the HDMI-connected cluster of devices.
This includes commands to power devices on or off, adjust volume, select A/V inputs, etc.
Related issue (if applicable): fixes
Earlier versions of this component suffered from long run-times per loop invocation.
This is solved by the optional use of a UART.
To better show how to use this, two pictures with schematics are added.
