This patch adds support for sending BLE beacons to MQTT so that they are compatible with room_mqtt integration. This allows room level location tracking for iBeacon BLE devices (such as Home Assistant Android app).

The code is copied from https://community.home-assistant.io/t/esphome-esp32-ble-tracker-and-has-mqtt-room-platform-sensor/277554 and I've tested it with three Lite modules.

room_mqtt expects the topic name to reflect the room name where the sensor is located and currently this is hard coded as I haven't yet figured out how I could make this configurable via Home Assistant. Same for the mqtt settings. Feedback is appreciated.
