[ST Edge] Web Requestor: a driver to issue local POST and GET HTTP requests

I have a new Edge driver to share that provides the ability to issue POST and GET web requests to a specified URL. This functionality can help users that may today depend on webCoRE or other cloud-based means to do a similar task. Of course being an Edge driver it enables you to have fast & local automations. There are two ways this driver can be used: Pre-configure up to 50 different POST/GET URL strings, which can then be individually triggered through Automations/Rules or via a button in the mobile app. Issue custom URL POST/GET commands from within a Rule >>>>>UPDATE: Please go to this readme file for the latest instructions Limitations Although GET method is supported, it currently does not actually do anything with the returned data from the server.
