Separate functionality for Communication #2

Just an idea. I know, this is going to be a Webserver using ESP8266 and RPi Pico. My suggestion would be to separate communication from all other functionality by introducing a separate WiFi class in charge of handling initialization, connection establishment and data transfer. Doing this, the project would offer two benefits: providing an example for combining Pico with the ESP8266, AND, offering a library so that others could build their own WiFi-based examples. This library could provide a simular interface such as Wireless (from pythonwifi.iwLibs) or other proven libraries.

A good point, but I wrote it as an exercise - I'm still using ESP32s for my projects. Someone else is welcome to improve it, it could also be simplified as I used it to try out various concepts in the Pico SDK.

I will take care of it in the next weeks. First, I need to refresh my ESP8266 skills.
