Description

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

Would it be possible to implement a lightweight Matter over WiFi protocol stack in ESPHome?

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

The aim is to be able to control these devices directly via a Matter controller.

**Additional context**

This could be used for very simple binary sensors. For example, a contact sensor, a presence sensor, etc.
