Description

**Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like**

Add Prana recuperator control over Bluetooth.
Devices supports control via a regular IR remote control and via bluetooth using a smartphone application

**Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:**

On github found two integrations for these devices, but the main problem is that the controller (raspberry) must be located near the recuperator itself, which is impractically.
this https://github.com/alextud/ha-prana
and this https://github.com/corvis/prana_rc

In second case it can be installed to another linux machine with bluetooth and connect it over the network to HA, but this is also not practical

**Additional context**

Thanks in advance, I think this integration will be useful to the community.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked ha-prana and prana_rc integrations to understand the existing Prana control approaches. No project files, tests, or entry points are named; done would mean defining and implementing Prana recuperator control over Bluetooth without requiring a nearby Raspberry Pi or a separate Linux machine.
