Ready for initial review.

@greenbreakfast if there are 4 PWM channels, does that mean the Omega can support 4 LED strings simultaneously or just one string at a time? I think it would be important to point out that 4 channels can be used simultaneously (assuming it is possible). From what I have seen, there is a much larger demand for WLED with the 4 channel ESP32 boards than 1 channel.

@remingtontr other than the note above about support for 4 LED strings, everything else looks good to me. @greenbreakfast please proceed with your review and feedback on the 4 channels. Thank you.

@remingtontr added feedback on the 4 channels and a note on where the tip should go
