In order to retain the current power save mode behaviour, this needs to be flipped due to the breaking change in 2026.3.1 introduced by esphome/esphome#15029 (which flips it the other way).
Otherwise when users install a firmware built on the latest version of ESPHome, Wi-Fi connectivity becomes high-latency/potentially unstable due to the aggressive nature of the now "correctly" set HIGH mode.
Right now we have to override this in our local configs to retain previous behaviour.
