docs(car-charging): the gateway integration replaces car_charging_now rather than keeping yours
gateway.py writes car_charging_now with set_arg, which overwrites, unlike the Ohme, myenergi and Wallbox integrations (set_arg_auto with overwrite=False). The devices.md overview added in this PR links here. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

With Octopus Intelligent charging a charge outside a dispatch does not get the cheap rate either.<BR>

A car charging outside any charging slot is also modelled in the plan at **input_number.predbat_car_charging_rate** until the end of the current plan slot (**plan_interval_minutes**, 30 minutes by default), so no export is planned over it. With **switch.predbat_metric_dynamic_load_adjust** On its load is also taken out of the recent-load estimate, so it is not counted twice - see [Dynamic Load Adjust](customisation.md#scaling-and-weight-options).<BR>

Leave it commented out if you have no sensor that reports the car actually drawing power.

The Ohme (`ohme_automatic`), myenergi Zappi (`myenergi_automatic`), Wallbox (`wallbox_automatic`) and Predbat gateway integrations set it for you, unless you have set it yourself in `apps.yaml`.

The Ohme (`ohme_automatic`), myenergi Zappi (`myenergi_automatic`) and Wallbox (`wallbox_automatic`) integrations set it for you, unless you have set it yourself in `apps.yaml`. The Predbat gateway integration sets it too, replacing any value of your own.

- **car_charging_now_response** - Set to the range of positive responses for car_charging_now to indicate that the car is charging. Useful if you have a sensor for your car charger that isn't binary.

The sensor's state must match one of these exactly (ignoring case). If unset it defaults to `yes`, `on`, `enable`, `true` and `charging`, which covers on/off sensors and chargers whose status reads `Charging`, such as a myenergi Zappi's plug status.
