J. Nick Koston 3b14f4dfc8 [api] Pass the encode cursor by value through the protobuf helpers
The ProtoEncode helpers took the write cursor by reference and a
bool force flag. At -Os the compiler outlines most of them, so every
call site had to keep pos in a stack slot and pass its address, plus
a constant for the flag. The helpers now take the cursor by value and
return the advanced cursor, so consecutive calls chain through the
return register; forced fields call a _force overload instead of
passing a flag.

The fixed32 writers use __builtin_memcpy, which stays a builtin under
ESP-IDF's -fno-builtin-memcpy, and are outlined on embedded targets so
each fixed32 or float field is a short call instead of an inline
memcpy call. Non-forced float and fixed32 fields with a single-byte
tag share the same writer behind a zero check.

Generated encode bodies shrink by 18 percent on an ESP32 IDF proxy
build (2360 to 1932 bytes for 27 messages); entity messages gain the
most, for example ListEntitiesSensorResponse::encode 190 to 134 bytes
and SensorStateResponse::encode 78 to 49 bytes.

Tests for ESPHome

This directory contains some tests for ESPHome. At the moment, all the tests only work by simply executing esphome over some YAML files that are made to test whether the yaml gets converted to the proper C++ code.

Of course this is all just very high-level and things like unit tests would be much better. So if you have time and know how to set up a unit testing framework for python, please do give it a try.

When adding entries in test_.yaml files we usually need only one file updated, unless conflicting code is generated for different configurations, e.g. wifi and ethernet cannot be tested on the same device.

Current test_.yaml file contents.
