Julian Pawlowski 76b0d0a766 docs(user): add dynamic icon and color guides for dashboard customization
Added comprehensive user documentation for visual dashboard customization:

- docs/user/icon-colors.md: New guide for using icon_color attribute
  * Explains CSS variable approach for theme compatibility
  * Shows when to use icon_color vs state interpretation
  * Examples for Custom Button Card, Entities Card, Mushroom, Glance
  * Custom color override options (theme-based and direct)
  * All state values use lowercase (HA convention)

- docs/user/dynamic-icons.md: New guide for automatic icon changes
  * Explains state-based icon behavior without cataloging specifics
  * Dashboard examples with standard and custom cards
  * Icon override instructions for fixed icons
  * Binary sensor icon behavior details
  * Integration with dynamic colors

- Updated cross-references in README.md, sensors.md, automation-examples.md
  to link both new guides

Impact: Users can now create visually rich dashboards with color-coded and
icon-changing sensors without writing complex conditional logic. Documentation
focuses on principles and practical examples rather than exhaustive listings,
making it easy to understand and maintain.
