Sensor: DHT11 #64

Adding a basic DHT11 module as may be more (or less) available/expensive than SHT series.

This is also a test to see just how easy, or otherwise, it is to add new capabilities.

I'm using the standard Arduino KY-015 board, this is pretty basic, so may not even be required, i.e. it could probably be hand soldered onto a dev board.

Board is from left to right with pins down and DHT11 facing you Vcc (3.3-5), data, Gnd For a first attempt I'm connecting to 5V and data to D1

Yesterday failed, today I realized I'd got the voltage and data swapped - but now getting odd readings.
