Re: [mh] Adding ability to send arbitrary commands to Tasmota

I could be wrong, but I am guessing the number of people converting from 
MQTT to Tasmota_HTTP could be counted on one hand (and are probably 
already on this thread!) so it would likely be easier to just convert 
the user code to be case insensitive instead of adding a bunch of 
backward compatibility into the code base.  Perhaps a note on the Wiki 
indicating that Tasmota_HTTP::Item presents the JSON directly from 
Tasmota whereas MQTT lower cases all the data so people are aware.
