Dear Otto,
first of all thanks for outstanding works, esphome is very impressive.
Please, have a look at my request.
It adds ability to use typical gps module as (and only) RTC for esphome,
unfortunally only for ESP8266, I have no ESP32 atm, but imho code should work for it too.

It also relies on tinygps as parsing NMEA format lib for simplicity. Idk if it will suit you.

Please, let me know if code is properely formatted for your requirements, I'm not C++ guy at all.

Also I have a question related to work with TZs: even timezone is given in config, or fron local PC
now() returns UTC as well as utcnow(). I tried to understand why so, but finally got no clue on it.

Pull request in esphome with python changes (if applicable): esphome/esphome#509
