ESP32 ESP32 LR mode #50

Has the ESP32 Long range mode been evaluated/tested? Or else I might experiment with a long range/low data option.

The ESP32 doc states that ranges up to 1km can be reached by using their patented protocol.

LR documentation: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/wifi.html#long-range-lr

No, it hasn't, it requires an ESP as a receiver and a transmitter. Integrating it is very much possible, but I haven't found the time yet. The datarate is already fixed to WIFI_PROTOCOL_11B for lower data rates

Support was added with the latest commit. Function is to be tested and will be part of the new release once it works
