This PR removes the unnecessary confirmation checkbox "This [feature/improvement] would benefit the broader ioBroker adapter development community" from GitHub issue templates.
Problem
When creating new issues, users were required to confirm that their suggestion would benefit the broader community. As noted in the issue discussion, this confirmation serves no practical purpose since users wouldn't abort their suggestion at this point simply because they believe it lacks community benefit.
Changes
Removed the confirmation checkbox from two issue templates:
Feature Request Template (
feature_request.yml):Documentation/Automation Template (
documentation_automation.yml):Impact
The change maintains template quality while removing friction from the contribution process, making it easier for community members to submit valuable feedback and suggestions.
Fixes #49.
