Overall this code would a lot easier to review if

Does this ever get set to true?

Let's get some doc comments explaining what these callbacks do (and
which versions they apply to).

cabc_config() in particular appears to have a very odd interface for
wled4.  It looks like it relies on being initially called with enable
set a particular way and prevents itself from acting again. Therefore if
the comment you end up writing doesn't sound "right" then please also
fix the API!

Finally, why is everything except cabc_config() prefixed with wled?
