Add ~16 RGB Zigbee smart bulbs to the components list

Compares innr RB 285 C (this project's own existing project-plan.md pick,
router-capable, confirmed zigbee2mqtt support), IKEA TRADFRI (cheapest but
not reliably on Amazon), and Sengled (cheap but not a Zigbee router, which
matters for whole-house mesh coverage) — picks innr. Count is a rough ~16
placeholder pending an actual per-room fixture count. Adds it to the
Lighting/Summed totals/Need/Price estimate sections; new subtotal
~€1,729-2,045.

#Lighting — need ~16 RGB smart bulbs (count TBD)
**Zigbee, not WiFi/cloud bulbs** — the whole point of the Zigbee2MQTT backbone this
project already runs (§1.3) is one local mesh instead of N different manufacturer
clouds; a WiFi bulb (Tuya/WiZ/etc.) would be a second, cloud-dependent ecosystem
bolted onto a stack that's explicitly local-first everywhere else. Mains-powered
Zigbee bulbs also act as mesh **routers**, which matters here specifically: ~16 of
them spread across every room does more for whole-house Zigbee coverage (for the
battery sensors in §1.4) than the coordinator alone ever could.
Three real options were compared, not just the first search hit:
| Option | Router? | Zigbee2MQTT support | Price | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [innr RB 285 C](https://www.amazon.de/Smart-dimmbar-kompatibel-Philips-RB/dp/B07GT1LWDH) (also [2-pack](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Innr-Colour-Philips-Assistant-Required/dp/B07GT12JTJ)) | Yes | Confirmed — [zigbee2mqtt.io device page](https://zigbee.blakadder.com/Innr_RB_285_C.html) | ~€1520/bulb (docs/project-plan.md §1.4) | **Picked** — already this project's own documented choice, real listings on multiple Amazon EU sites, RGBW + tunable white 22006500K |
| IKEA TRÅDFRI color | Yes | Well-supported, huge install base | ~€1215/bulb (cheapest of the three) | Not on Amazon in most regions (IKEA.com/stores only) — cheaper on paper but doesn't fit "find it on Amazon," and the color-capable SKU specifically (not the tunable-white-only ones) needs care to pick |
| Sengled Zigbee color (e.g. [2-pack](https://www.amazon.com/Sengled-Changing-Dimmable-Multicolor-Equivalent/dp/B0899LJHVV)) | **No** — end device only | Supported, but community reports of RGB/XY color quirks on some zigbee2mqtt versions | Similar ballpark to innr | Skipped — buying 16 non-router bulbs throws away the mesh-strengthening benefit that's the actual reason to prefer mains-powered bulbs here |
Buying at this quantity: check amazon.de for a 4-pack or larger multi-pack of the
RB 285 C (cheaper per-unit than 16x single-packs) before ordering singles.
4x-pack pricing wasn't found in search results — verify against the live listing.
