fix: send wifiStrength only for real signal changes

At -70 dBm the RSSI moves a dBm or two constantly, so the >1 dBm check
every 1.5s sent wifiStrength to every client about 270 times an hour.
That is extra traffic on an already lossy link and a state write in
Home Assistant for each one.

Broadcast on a channel change, or for a change of at least 3 dBm no
more than every 10s. A newly connected client still gets the current
value straight away.
