Feature request: Sensor sleep mode #1

Description

@jonathon-oodar

First of all, this is a great little flask app/server. Thanks!

This is just a feature request, but since particulate matter sensors have a limited lifespan it'd be nice if the server could put the sensor into sleep mode while it isn't being read (and wake it up maybe 10sec before reading) to allow for longer term use.

You can see here the SDS011 sensor has a laser diode service life of up to 8,000 hours:
