Subject: [PATCH] refactor(sensors): optimize default entity activation for
 better UX
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Adjusted entity_registry_enabled_default flags to reduce initial entity
count while keeping most useful sensors active by default.

Changes:
- Disabled rating sensors (current/next interval, hourly, daily) - Level
  sensors provide better granularity (5 levels vs 3) for automations
- Disabled leading 24h window sensors (avg/min/max) - Advanced use case,
  overlaps with tomorrow statistics
- Disabled additional volatility sensors (tomorrow, next_24h,
  today_tomorrow) - Today's volatility sufficient for typical use cases

Rationale:
- Price level sensors (5 states: very_cheap → very_expensive) are more
  commonly used than rating sensors (3 states: low → high)
- Leading 24h windows overlap with tomorrow daily statistics which have
  clearer boundaries
- Single volatility indicator (today) covers most automation needs

Impact: Reduces default active entities from ~65 to ~50 while maintaining
all essential functionality. Advanced users can enable additional sensors
as needed. Improves initial setup experience by focusing on most relevant
sensors.
