[FEATURE REQUEST] plugin for webhooks

[IvoGruber]

Hi @Luligu ,

I already played around with the matterbridge-example-dynamic-platform plugin and made a promising proof of concept to create a switch (outlet) device for webhooks. The idea is to just call a webhook, when the device is switched on. It later switches off automatically after a short time of period. I choosed outlet because of (you name it) Alexa.

Thus it would be able to create a custom voice command that can than switch on the outlet and the matterbridge calls the webhook, which in my case is created in home assistant and can trigger a specific automation.

This would overcome a lot of current limitations like you can have that feature now cloudless and free.

I know it's kind of a hack but if you like to build something like that I can at least give you the proof of concept and would help out as much as I can.
