Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like
Support for the I2C capable OPT3001 lux sensor - https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/opt3001.pdf

Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:
A growing number of breakout boards for the OPT3001 sensor are now available at very low cost. They are becoming a common replacement for the 'traditional' LDR and voltage divider.

Example code is available below

Additional context
I have tried hacking together some of the above code into a custom ESPHome I2C sensor as per the documentation, but I have zero C++ knowledge. I can't even get .begin() to work. I am happy to help and test if anyone else can munge the code together.

I have made it with an external component over git hub see:

# Example configuration entry
i2c:
  - id: bus_a
    sda: D2
    scl: D1
    scan: True

external_components:
# equivalent shorthand for GitHub
  - source: github://OstertagM/ESPhome-user-component/esphome@main
    components: [ OPT3001 ]
    refresh: 0s

# Example configuration entry
sensor:
  - platform: OPT3001
    i2c_id: bus_a
    illuminance:
      name: "Living Licht"
    address: 0x45
    update_interval: 5s

It was just an integration of the ClosedCube also. I hope somebody improve the code. But for me it works.
