Commands documentation #93

Please add documentation for voice commands. Words needed to speak to Alexa so the command will be triggered. E.g. for activity.

The "Appliance Types" are just a hint to the backend and the app to pick the icon to use for the devices. It's the traits that influence the commands you need to use.

Activities can only have on/off control so those are the types of commands you would use to start an activity.

Also the phrases differ based on the language you are interacting with the Echo device in.

Please feel free to look at the Amazon Documentation for suggestions and if you want to raise a pull request to update the documentation then I'd definitely look at including it.
