Subject: [PATCH] Allow starting without configured sensors for discovery-only
 mode

- config.SensorConfig.load() now warns instead of raising FileNotFoundError
  if sensors.json doesn't exist
- main.py no longer exits if len(sensors) == 0
- Instead, warns user and suggests using 'sensorpajen approve-sensors'
- Application will now start in discovery-only mode
- This allows users to use the discovery workflow to add sensors

Changes:
- config.py: Handle missing sensors.json gracefully
- main.py: Log warning instead of error when no sensors configured
  and continue running (allows discovery to work)

Fixes: Unable to start application for initial sensor discovery
