J. Nick Koston e7af2aaf9b [core] Address review: secrets perms, mtime freshness, substitution regression, tests
- save_compiled_config: write the cache with mode 0600 (the YAML
  contains resolved secrets) and always rewrite so mtime advances
  even when content is unchanged. Previously write_file_if_changed
  could leave mtime pinned behind a whitespace YAML edit, locking
  the fast path to 'stale'.
- __main__: skip the fast path when -s overrides are passed. The
  cache was written against the previous substitution set;
  reusing it would silently ignore the new values.
- Add tests for save_compiled_config (write + swallow-errors), the
  wizard-only sidecar fallback, and the substitution-skip branch.
- Trim docstrings/comments throughout.

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.
