Add support for Wiz lights about ledfx HOT 4 CLOSED

I'm considering re-writing effects to render in 0d, 1d, 2d, and adding device support that corresponds with this. Sometime in the future though, there are more pressing things at hand!

I'm cautious adding a new device that only supports one of our effects - I can easily remove the ability to set other effects for them, but I can see it causing lots of issues.

On the other hand, setting up multiple lights into an array using our display management might allow them to act as a single array and have effects span across them.

I'll have a think.

Good idea about setting up multiple lights into an array. I went ahead and hardcoded my living room lights as a single device with each pixel being sent to a different bulb. As it happens the hardcoded addresses fixed a different problem that I didn't notice for a while, which was that LedFX attempts to open a websocket on the device address and causes the Wiz lights to eventually disconnect from their cloud service - in turn preventing Alexa voice control over the lights. In the LedFX device entry I was able to put 127.0.0.1 in place of the real bulb addresses so the bulbs only receive the (hardcoded) udp commands and nothing else.
