Add automatic rule enabling feature to simplify configuration

This commit implements automatic enabling of Tasmota rules when they are defined in the configuration.
Key changes:
- Modified TasmotaManager.py to detect rule definitions and automatically send enable commands
- Updated network_configuration.json to remove redundant Rule1 entry
- Updated documentation in README.md and CONSOLE_COMMANDS.md to explain the new feature
- Added test script to verify the automatic rule enabling functionality

This change simplifies the configuration by allowing users to define rules without needing to
explicitly enable them with a separate command.

 Rules allow you to create simple automations directly on the Tasmota device.
 
+### Automatic Rule Enabling
+
+When you define a rule (e.g., `rule1`, `rule2`, `rule3`), the TasmotaManager script will automatically enable it by sending the corresponding enable command (`Rule1 1`, `Rule2 1`, `Rule3 1`) to the device. This means you only need to include the rule definition in your configuration, and the script will handle enabling it.
+
 | Command | Values | Description |
 |---------|--------|-------------|
 | `rule1` | Rule expression | Defines the first rule. Example: `on button1#state=10 do power0 toggle endon` |
-| `Rule1` | `0`, `1` | Enables or disables rule1:<br>`0` = disable (default)<br>`1` = enable |
+| `rule2` | Rule expression | Defines the second rule. |
+| `rule3` | Rule expression | Defines the third rule. |
+
+Note: You no longer need to include the `Rule1`, `Rule2`, or `Rule3` commands in your configuration as they are automatically applied. If you do include them, they will still be processed, but they are redundant.

+### Automatic Rule Enabling
+
+The script automatically enables rules when they are defined. If you include a rule definition (e.g., `rule1`, `rule2`, `rule3`) in the console section, the script will automatically send the corresponding enable command (`Rule1 1`, `Rule2 1`, `Rule3 1`) to the device. This means you no longer need to include both the rule definition and the enable command in your configuration.
+
+For example, this configuration:
+```json
+{
+  "console": {
+    "rule1": "on button1#state=10 do power0 toggle endon"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Will automatically enable rule1 on the device, equivalent to manually sending both:
+```
+rule1 on button1#state=10 do power0 toggle endon
+Rule1 1
+```
+
 Each parameter is sent as a command to the device using the Tasmota HTTP API. The device details in `TasmotaDevices.json` will include a `console_status` field indicating whether console parameters were updated.
