Closes #32

Adds:

  • secrets.yaml.example listing all five required keys with comments explaining what each is for and how to generate the OTA / Noise keys
  • .gitignore covering secrets.yaml and .esphome/ build artefacts
  • README pointer to copy the example before flashing

Verification

  • esphome config passes both YAMLs (using a stub secrets.yaml filled from the example template)

Disclosure

Drafted with Claude (Anthropic). Author-reviewed.

The YAML uses !secret references for five values (wifi_ssid,
wifi_password, wifi_fallback_password, ota_password,
home_assistant_key) that aren't documented anywhere. New users have
to read the YAML to figure out what to put in secrets.yaml.

Adds:
  * secrets.yaml.example with all five required keys, comments
    explaining what each one is for, and generation hints for the
    OTA / HA Noise keys
  * .gitignore covering secrets.yaml and .esphome/ build artifacts
  * README pointer to copy the example before flashing
