ESP32-V2 Deep Sleep between Updates? #431

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Would like to have WipperSnapper installed outside with a solar setup (still within wifi range) for a wind gauge, anemometer, and rain gauge (sparkfun weather kit).

Describe the solution you'd like Deep sleep to conserve at much battery life as possible between updates using Espressif's deep sleep capability. I typically poll every 15 minutes.

Describe alternatives you've considered I could go with an ESP32-S2, Circuit Python, MQTT, etc... but I like the simplicity of WipperSnapper and easily installed updates.

Additional context I'll be working with the Adafruit solar charger either product 390 or 4755.

I have no idea if the Feather ESP32-V2 is already doing deep sleep or not with WipperSnapper. If yes, then disregard this feature request.
