Attempted to mitigate flickering on ESP32

Replaced broken effect 34, now a quad-color running effect
Added new binaries and guide

+### What binary should I choose?
+
+Currently WLED supports the ESP8266 and a very early, experimental version of ESP32 support.
+Be sure to choose the correct binary for your platform and LED type.
+
+- Do you have a standard RGB WS2812B NeoPixel strip?
+	--> Use wled05dev_XXXXXXX_RGB_PLATFORM.bin
+	
+- Do you have an RGBW SK6812 strip (half of the LED is white)?
+	--> Use wled05dev_XXXXXXX_RGBW_PLATFORM.bin
+	
+- Do you have a Cronixie clock set by Diamex?
+	--> Use wled05dev_XXXXXXX_CRONIXIE_PLATFORM.bin
+	
+	
+### What about wled03 and wled04?
+
+These are legacy releases only for the ESP8266. They don't include the latest features and may have unfixed bugs - only use them if the new wled05dev test builds don't work for you!

-- If you do not plan to change the software, you can use the supplied binary files instead-
-Just flash a [basic HTTP OTA updater](https://github.com/Aircoookie/ESP8266MinimalHTTPUpdater) sketch and upload the bin!
-
-1. Connect a  WS2812B RGB led strip to GPIO2. Optionally connect a NO-pushbutton to GPIO0 (internal pull-up) and ground.
-
-2. Follow a guide to setup your Arduino client (I am using version 1.8.1) with the ESP8266 libraries.
-For current compiles I use version 2.3.0.
-
-3. In file "wled00.ino", you should change the access point and OTA update passphrases for added security (you can change them later, this is just the "factory default"). Flash the sketch.
-You will need to install the NeoPixelBus library by Makuna. All other dependencies are included with WLED for convenience.
-
-5. Connect to automatically started WiFi access point "WLED-AP" using default passwort "wled1234". Go to the IP "192.168.4.1".
-
-6. Click on the cog icon to edit settings like connecting the module to your home WiFi.

-7. Have fun with the software!
