Andreas Hilbig 41e4c4da1f feat: add weather sensor support and fix device status mapping
This commit introduces support for provisioning weather sensors with geo-coordinates
via user macros and fixes a critical mapping bug in device status.

Changes:
- fix: Corrected DeviceStatus enum mapping (0=ENABLED, 1=DISABLED).
- feat: Added 'status' field to CreateTemplateItem input in GraphQL schema.
- feat: Enabled user macro assignment during host and template creation/import.
- feat: Added regression tests for user macro assignment and HTTP agent URL support.
- docs: Updated cookbook and sample queries to use {$LAT} and {$LON} macros.
- test: Added unit tests for macro assignment in HostImporter and TemplateImporter.
- chore: Regenerated GraphQL types.
