Update to new RGBCT component

The newest version of esphome supports a new RGBCT component that removes the need for a custom library. This is the relevant part of my config:

output:
  - platform: esp8266_pwm
    pin: GPIO13
    id: out_ct
  - platform: esp8266_pwm
    pin: GPIO5
    id: out_ctbrightness
  - platform: esp8266_pwm
    pin: GPIO4
    id: out_red
  - platform: esp8266_pwm
    pin: GPIO12
    id: out_green
  - platform: esp8266_pwm
    pin: GPIO14
    id: out_blue


light:
  - platform: rgbct
    name: "${friendly_name}"
    red: out_red
    green: out_green
    blue: out_blue
    color_temperature: out_ct
    white_brightness: out_ctbrightness
    cold_white_color_temperature: 166 mireds
    warm_white_color_temperature: 333 mireds
    color_interlock: True

Thanks for giving us the heads up! Yay!

@mew1033 Hmm... Trouble I'm having with that is in HomeAssistant the White is actually warm, and the Warm is actually White.

And now that I'm on the newer version of ESPHome, it won't compile your custom component so I can't switch back :/

OK, got it, had to invert the out_ctbrightness pin for HomeAssistant. So for HomeAssistant users, use

output:
  - platform: esp8266_pwm
    pin: GPIO13
    id: out_ct
    inverted: true
  - platform: esp8266_pwm
    pin: GPIO5
    id: out_ctbrightness
  - platform: esp8266_pwm
    pin: GPIO4
    id: out_red
  - platform: esp8266_pwm
    pin: GPIO12
    id: out_green
  - platform: esp8266_pwm
    pin: GPIO14
    id: out_blue


light:
  - platform: rgbct
    name: "${upper_devicename}"
    red: out_red
    green: out_green
    blue: out_blue
    color_temperature: out_ct
    white_brightness: out_ctbrightness
    cold_white_color_temperature: 166 mireds
    warm_white_color_temperature: 333 mireds
    color_interlock: True
