Update wallbox_monitor.py

✅ Sensitive URLs are now stored in wallbox_monitor.credo, keeping the script clean and secure.
✅ No need to modify the script when updating URLs, just edit wallbox_monitor.credo.
✅ Graceful error handling, preventing crashes if the credentials file is missing or misconfigured.
