Description
**Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like**
When the "no port selected" screen pops-up, also add the FTDI driver link. I've spent quitte some time yesterday trying to get my Wemos D1 mini working(esp8266). I probably is a cheap clone, thus the drivers listed in the screen don't work.
Adding the link to the FTDI drivers might help user get going faster: https://ftdichip.com/drivers/vcp-drivers/
**Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:**
Making it easier for users to install the correct driver.
