Added wmbusmeters as a possible DIY solution

Proposed change

I have added wmbusmeters as a possible DIY solution for collecting water usage. This is my first PR, so I am not sure how to deal with it. Please feel free to edit the text however you want. My intention is just to spread the news that a cheap TV tuner can listen and capture packets from freely broadcasting meters. I've recently managed to read my Techem water meters and I am very happy with this solution.
I even forgot to add this ESPHome alternative to tv tuners https://github.com/SzczepanLeon/esphome-components
Others use this add-on as well https://community.home-assistant.io/t/add-on-request-wmbusmeter/228988

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

  • Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
    • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
    • Generate unit testing code for this file.
    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
    • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
    • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.
