Add Zigbee Firmware support for new ESP32 series to ESPHome Device Builder
Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like
As far as I know, ESPHome Device Builder currently cannot flash firmware with Zigbee protocol support. I carefully search for open issues to find threads where the discussion has been introduced but I was unsuccessful. However, I was wondering if it might be possible to customize the firmware-building process to also support Zigbee for ESP modules that are compatible with Zigbee, of course.
Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:
Additional context
I don't know if there are branches or feature proposals that have already been analyzed concerning this, but I envision a feature to introduce during the creation of a new device.
When clicking "New Device," the system suggests the type of firmware communication to create (Wi-Fi/Zigbee).
It would be a good start, considering that new ESP development boards will increasingly support the Zigbee protocol. Obviously, I can imagine that it would lead to significant modifications in the ESPHome Device Builder core.

This is really just a duplicate of the existing feature request here -> https://github.com/esphome/feature-requests/issues/1397
@gppprimo Suggest you close your request as there is no need for duplicates. So lets leave the Zigbee dicussion in existing request:

PS: Note that adding Zigbee device support is much more complicated than simply adding a transport layer (as it is not IP-based).
