Support for smart oven #23

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe: I'm facing the inconvenience of not being able to monitor and control my smart oven within the context of my home automation setup. Currently, there's no direct integration unless I take the circuitous route of using Home Assistant as an intermediary before incorporating it into Homebridge. This absence of streamlined support hinders my ability to seamlessly include my smart oven in my smart home ecosystem. This means I can't receive real-time updates on cooking progress, preheat the oven remotely, or adjust cooking settings via HomeKit.

Describe the solution you'd like: I'm submitting a request for the integration of Smart Oven device compatibility into the Homebridge Electrolux Devices plugin. This extension would involve the creation of a new accessory category tailored specifically for smart ovens. Within this category, users should have the capability to effortlessly monitor essential information like the current cooking status (off, preheating, cooking), cooking temperature, remaining cooking time, and even specific cooking modes (bake, broil, convection, etc.). A paramount aspect of this feature would be the ability to initiate preheating or adjust cooking parameters remotely via HomeKit, adding a layer of convenience and control to the cooking process.

Describe alternatives you've considered: While direct support for smart ovens is lacking, I've explored temporary solutions such as repurposing generic switches or outlets within the Homebridge plugin. However, these makeshift solutions fall short in delivering the nuanced functionality and accuracy required to holistically integrate a smart oven. They lack the ability to provide real-time cooking updates or offer fine-grained control over cooking settings.

Additional context: My smart oven is an integral part of my kitchen setup, and it belongs to the Electrolux product lineup. The oven is accessible via the Electrolux Kitchen app, affording me the capability to set cooking modes, adjust temperatures, and receive notifications related to cooking progress or check temperature. I'm excited to collaborate in bringing this feature to fruition, offering comprehensive details and participating in rigorous testing. I would love for this feature to provide visibility into the current temperature status and allow users to turn the oven on or off remotely with set temperature and mode.

Hi @JanekBaumgart Would you able to change your password to the Electrolux app and send me credentials to my email tomekkleszcz[at]icloud.com? Since I don't own this appliance, I'm unable to support it without your help.
