Question: BLE as device tracker? #15

JacekDob, thanks for this porting. I'm thinking on buying an ESP32 and I'm wondering if is possible to use this version of Tasmota to track BLE devices. I'm already use 3 Tasmota ESP8266 (for a total of 14 relays and 5 different sensors) in my house, controlled by Home Assistant, and recently I had a look on BLE tracking devices. What I would like to archive is connecting an ESP32 driving 2 more relays and using the internal BLE tracking people on my front door to activating scenes. Another question if I may: could you gently update to the latest Tasmota version (6.2) and Arduino ESP/Core (2.4.2)? Thanks.

I'm also interested in BLE; but as well as rssi tracking, I'd like to be able to use a tasmota based firmware to talk to and receive notifications from the BLE devices in a general way. One project which does the rssi tracking is OpenMQTTGateway (detects BLE devices and sends to MQTT, works on esp32, build with arduino), but it lacks the maturity of the tasmota web interface :(.
