Description

### What would you like to happen?

Follow-up of https://github.com/apache/hop/issues/5628.

For metadata object "Asynchronous Web Service" we would like to be able to control the "Enabled" checkbox via an environmental variable:

Documentation would include valid values for this variable, and the logic that is applied when the variable is empty/unset, or contains invalid values.
Similary, what would happen when the checkbox conflicts with the value of the variable.
Optimally, the checkbox would be greyed out when the config variable is used?

Research direction

Start by locating the Asynchronous Web Service metadata configuration and its Hop GUI editor, then trace how the Enabled checkbox is currently read and persisted. Define the environment-variable values, empty or invalid behavior, precedence when it conflicts with the checkbox, and the expected documentation and GUI state.
