[ERR_REQUIRE_ESM] - when referencing the pkg as CommonJS

[PieterT2000]

When referencing your amazing package using,

const TPLSmartDevice = require('tplink-lightbulb')

I get this error

I suspect the reason is that exports in package.json takes precedence over main according to the Node.js docs. I will shortly after create a pr with a workaround.

I use microbundle to package for all, and that used to be the recommendation for setting it up, but they say, on their site, to do this now:

{
  "name": "foo",                      // your package name
  "type": "module",
  "source": "src/foo.js",             // your source code
  "exports": {
    "require": "./dist/foo.cjs",      // used for require() in Node 12+
    "default": "./dist/foo.modern.js" // where to generate the modern bundle (see below)
  },
  "main": "./dist/foo.cjs",           // where to generate the CommonJS bundle
  "module": "./dist/foo.module.js",   // where to generate the ESM bundle
  "unpkg": "./dist/foo.umd.js",       // where to generate the UMD bundle (also aliased as "umd:main")
  "scripts": {
    "build": "microbundle",           // compiles "source" to "main"/"module"/"unpkg"
    "dev": "microbundle watch"        // re-build when source files change
  }
}

So probly just need to make exports an object.

I can do a audit/update and add this change & publish.

Sorry, didn't see the PR, but once CI is finished building my last commit, 1.7.10 should have it working. Please test and let me know if that resolve the issue.
