Is your feature request related to a problem?

There are no examples currently for thread end devices, like a light or switch.

Describe the solution you'd like.

It would be very helpful to have some simple examples that might be used for Thread lights, switches, sensors etc.

Describe alternatives you've considered.

Thread is a network layer protocol, just like Wi-Fi. An application is required to build Thread products (light, switch, ...).

Matter is currently the most popular application runs over Thread, please check the light example in esp-matter here: https://github.com/espressif/esp-matter/tree/main/examples/light

If you want to implement some other applicaitons, you can also use the TCP/UDP APIs directly, refer to the udp example: https://github.com/espressif/esp-thread-br/blob/main/components/esp_ot_cli_extension/src/esp_ot_udp_socket.c
