Library does not load for espressif units

[Ceiku]

It seems as when it cannot find a hardware serial 0 or 1, the code brakes for imports in Platformio (which is what is used in the background by Esphome), as far as I can tell the error originates from here:

https://github.com/Apocrathia/Roomba/blob/c19391de107382cd27911c189167f11e9c2dffb4/Roomba.h#L389-L395

just importing the library breaks the code and produces this error:

I get an error that includes the same part about the token (.piolibdeps/eroomba/Roomba/Roomba.h:394:21: error: expected ')' before '*' token Roomba(Serial_* serial = &serial, Baud baud = Baud57600);) - but pointing to another cause it seems:

Unfortunately, I'm not really sure what to do - hope the error message can help someone smarter than me with identifying the problem 👍

I have made a fork that just defines the hardware serial property so that we avoid this error, it is not a future proof solution in cases where we are not using the default serial pins. I have tested it with D1 mini and other esp boards.

I notice that you are doing this with esphome, as myself. I have just made a Roomba component for it, that talks natively with home assistant. https://github.com/Ceiku/ESPHomeRoombaComponent
