Research direction

Start at the max17048 component's dependency declaration for i2c_bus and compare it with the v1.3 handoff-mode requirement described in the issue. Update the dependency to a compatible version, then verify that max17048 can be used by bmgr, which controls I2C initialization externally.

Description

Hi, distantly related to #494 and #528

I'm trying to use max17048 component inside bmgr. However, bmgr wants to control i2c init itself.

My understanding is v1.3+ of esp-iot-solutions i2c_bus supports a handoff mode necessary for external party to init the i2c bus. The max17048 is pretty much pinned to 1.1 of i2c_bus so we don't get to enjoy that feature.

So if I got all that right, then I would like to request max17048 use v1.3 or higher of i2c_bus
