IPv6 over LoRaWAN (LoRa) support in/for the ESP32 Hosted component?

[Hedda]

Describe the component you'd like

If someone will be looking at adding other transport protocols as mediums to the ESP32 Hosted component then please consider also adding IPv6 over LoRaWAN (LoRa) support to it as well via example SX126x/SX127x modules, making it more network layer agnostic:

• https://esphome.io/components/esp32_hosted/

  (which in turn I understand is based on Espressif's ESP-Hosted-MCU solution https://github.com/espressif/esp-hosted-mcu )

FYI, IPv6 over LoRaWAN officially supported by the LoRa Alliance, with their SCHC adaptation layer being able to transform a LoRaWAN device into an IPv6 host:

      • https://resources.lora-alliance.org/home/augmenting-lorawan-devices-with-internet-protocol-support

Could that be extended so could allow ESP32 modules to use LoRa/LoRaWAN modules as generic IPv6 communication co-processors?

Check for example out RAK3112 WisDuo LoRa module which combine ESP32-S3 and Semtech SX1262 on the same module:

PS: This is indirectly related to a other request that requests IPv6 over OpenThread via esp32_hosted as communication co-processors:

• https://github.com/orgs/esphome/discussions/3316

What are your use cases for this component?

Allow ESPHome on ESP32 to use of supported LoRaWAN (LoRa) modules as generic IPv6 communication radios for very long distances.

Is there a public datasheet, documentation and/or schematics?
