Latching Relay

[brentru]

What's the full name of the component you'd like to see in Adafruit.io WipperSnapper?
Adafruit Latching Mini Relay FeatherWing

Product URL or Datasheet
https://www.adafruit.com/product/2923

Additional context

You have support for non-latching relays like in the mini relay FeatherWIng. I've got a latching relay FeatherWing and which I've been using to control my thermostat. It would be great to have support for this. I could test it with a potentiometer or a button until you have support for I2C thermometers.

The latching relay has 2 input pin (set and clear) and the dialog for configuring the non-latching ha just one input pin since that is all that's needed.

This issue has been sitting idle for a while.

Workaround:
I implemented control for the latching relay by using two separate "non-latching relay" components, one for the SET interface and one for the UNSET interface.
