Add example for common Line Rule uses

@@ Line 46: / Line 46: @@
 The right most option allows for preventing a train to visit unless it can be fully loaded or unloaded. This toggle is ignored whilst the thresholds are set to always allow train visits.
 This toggle allows for Train Lines designed before this update, which depended on the arrival condition "All modules full" or "All modules empty" for filling trains, to instead set the threshold as they like, and enable the toggle to achieve the same thing. This works best with [[#Linked Storage|Linked Storage]].

	* Not connected: it is possible to link any storage to a station, even if no transport connects them together. This can lead to erroneous train visits expecting to be able to load or unload more cargo that the station is actually capable of.		* Not connected: it is possible to link any storage to a station, even if no transport connects them together.
