Update light.markdown (#2744)
* Update light.markdown I had a hard time setting up attributes to entities until I research for some other user's examples and saw they were using "data:". I feel like this should be mentioned or at least exposed with an example. I saw being used in 2 different ways: ```yaml action: service: light.turn_on data: entity_id: light.kitchen_lights brightness: 200 ``` ```yaml action: - service: light.turn_on entity_id: light.kitchen_lights data: brightness: 200 ``` I'm not sure which one is the best/correct way but tried with both and they work * Fix typos
