Description
**Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like**
M5StickC has a RTC BM8563 which is needed to leverage the sleep feature
**Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:**
When using sleep on the M5StickC it wakes back up immediately which drains the battery, without sleep the device is a bit useless as a remote for HA
**Additional context**
I am willing to loan out the device if a dev wants or I can test any beta code, I have a ton of free time while at work :D

Research direction
Start by identifying how ESPHome currently handles RTC devices and sleep behavior for the M5StickC, then determine the integration points needed for the BM8563. Done means the device can use the BM8563 for sleep scheduling without immediately waking and the behavior is verified on M5StickC hardware.
