Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe: I have a Samsung AC installed in the US for my apartment and it's installed with Fahrenheit, but I use Celsius in my Homebridge, the plugin thinks the temperature reported from the AC is in Celsius, so it reads 78 C. And I can't figure out an easy way to have the AC report in Celsius instead. Describe the solution you'd like: A config setting to automatically convert the data point to Celsius or Fahrenheit both ways. Describe alternatives you've considered: Additional context:

In ReReHome

Whatever this plugin publishes reaches Apple Home as a normal HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.

Bridges get their own settings page listing the accessories behind them.
