Get rid of FastLED #36

@LaszloAshinFormlabs

Description

@LaszloAshinFormlabs

FastLED emits warnings already.
When we upgrade to esp8266 platform 3.0.0 it will emit a lot of new warnings as well and cause LED flickering.
Maybe a new version of FastLED will solve this but the code doesn't seem to be very portable.

Also FastLED doesn't support using esp8266's I2S capability -- but that would also need some change in the wiring.

@petamas @balintfodor @PeterVarhegyiF thoughts?

  • Do you think we can change the wiring? LED strip data input should go to NodeMCU's RX instead of D2 (still needs to be tested, I am asking theoretically)
  • Do you agree we should drop FastLED?
