Description
**Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like**
It would be super fun to have clap detection, based on ADC from some microphone.
**Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:**
Nowadays we all have AI voice assistants in our pockets, yet it would be sometimes faster to just clap to toggle the lights.
You can make yourself a nice micro with LM358 amplifier/comparator - or just buy one already soldered on pcb.
**Additional context**
The `clap_detector` component could just be a `binary_sensor` component that would analize the grapth from other `sensor` component. It could have fields like `minimum_time_between_claps` or `claps_count_threshold`, and funtions like `on_clap` (it would execute on every single clap even if `claps_count_threshold` wasn't reached
To actually implement the detection - there are many algorithms out there, we just need to pick the right one
