Midea A/C via local XYE

ESPHome
160

New branch to test:
units_switch

This adds in a “Use Fahrenheit” switch. If off, uses 0xC0 for set temp…if on, uses 0xC4.

Also adds Defrost State
Also adds Fan Speed (actual)

Thanks to Cursor for helping fly through the switch add and the two States…

Please test and let me know if this works for you too…
