The description of new feature

Originally listed here https://github.com/georgezhao2010/midea_ac_lan/issues/67 and marked as "not planned" by the original maintainer, I'd like to re-request this feature please. The original request by user @IGaMbLeRI was as follows:

Some models of Midea (and other compatible brands) A/C and (de)humidifier units have option to switch on Ionization by pressing a button called "FRESH" on the remote control. For example, if you see this manual for what seems to be BreezeleSS+, on PDF Page 8, you will see how it indicates that the Ionization mode is working - leaf icon on the LED panel.

I personally have a different A/C brand and model but it also has that same "FRESH" feature that is present in many other Midea devices of different classes.

Is it possible to have this feature added for compatible devices with a toggle, just like "ECO Mode", "Prompt Tone", "Swing Vertical" etc?

Kind regards.

I have a Midea Xtreme Eco Air Conditioner 00000Q1B and the "Air Magic" function is a separate button on the remote control, to augment the currently selected mode, rather than a separate "mode" eg, Air Magic can be active when the overall mode is "Heat" or "Cool" or "Auto" or "Dry" or "Fan Only" etc.

I am willing to help in any way I can, wireshark, debug logs etc.

Thanks very much
