Description
**Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like**
Add support for Hynetek HUSB238 USB Power Delivery (PD) controller.
_The [Hynetek HUSB238](https://en.hynetek.com/2421.html) is a highly integrated USB Power Delivery (PD) controller as sink role for up to 100W power rating. The HUSB238 is compatible with PD3.0 and Type-C V1.4, and it can also support Apple Divider 3, BC1.2 SDP, CDP and DCP while the source is attached._
**Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:**
Remote control of a circuit's supply voltage with [Adafruit USB Type C Power Delivery Dummy Breakout](https://www.adafruit.com/product/5807) board.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked Adafruit_HUSB238, HUSB238, and HUSB238Driver Arduino libraries to understand the controller's supported operations and interfaces. Compare those capabilities with the target project's existing hardware integrations; done means HUSB238 support can remotely control the attached circuit's supply voltage and is covered by the project's applicable validation.
