## Summary
Adds support for Home Assistant automations in the iOS app. Automations
can now be triggered from iOS Control Center widgets (iOS 18+), similar
to existing script and scene controls.
**Domain & Model**
- Added `automation` domain with robot icon and `trigger` service
- Included automation in `AppEntitiesModel` tracked domains for database
caching
- Added to CarPlay supported domains
**Control Widget** (iOS 18+)
- `ControlAutomation` - Main control widget
- `AutomationAppIntent` - Triggers `automation.trigger` service
- `IntentAutomationEntity` - Entity queries and selection
- `ControlAutomationsValueProvider` - Configuration with custom
icons/text
**Pattern**
Follows existing `ControlScript` and `ControlScene` implementation
patterns for consistency.
**Tests**
- Updated `testWidgetsKindCasesValues` to include assertion for
`controlAutomation` case
- Updated widget kind count validation from 25 to 26
## Screenshots
N/A - Control widgets are system UI and cannot be screenshotted during
development. Widget appears in Control Center configuration with
automation icon and allows selection from available automations.
