Description

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

Support for IR control for Ferroli Split Units, ex. Ferroli Reflex C 12 UI split-type AC units, using the Climate component.

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

Tried the following integrations:
- midea_ir
- zhlt01
- daikin_ir
- also tried manually capturing IR signals, in both RAW and some formats that looked consistent (ex. AEHA)

No luck with any,

**Additional context**

Here's some additional info on the unit and remote (I was not able to find more online about models, protocols etc.), neither generically nor esphome-related.

Research direction

The request targets ESPHome's Climate component but names no repository files, tests, or implementation entry points. Start by locating the Climate IR integration and determining the Ferroli remote protocol from the supplied unit and remote details; done would require documented protocol support and verified control for the split unit.
