Feature: support JSON payload in MQTT power meter

the MQTT power meter can now process the messages published at the respective topics as JSON and extract a power value using a JSON path (same as in HTTP+JSON power meter). additionally, selecting a unit for the power value as well as an option to invert the value's sign was added as well, similar to the HTTPS+JSON power meter.
