Aqara Camera G3 integration for Home Assistant

ATTENTION: The component only works after enabled telnet. Only supportd stream. Not support motion detection, ai etc. yet.

This is a way to enable telnet from #Wh1terat. Thankes for Wh1terat for the amazing aQRootG3 v0.2.0.

After enabled telnet, you need to finish the configuration before reboot G3.

ATTENTION ⚠️ : The Lumi company (Aqara manufacturer) started disable the post_init script and telnet method. If you still want to use this component, please do not update to latest firmware of the gateway/hub.
