Document the sysfs attributes supported by the lm75 driver.

The driver exposes temp1_input, temp1_max, temp1_max_hyst, and the
standard update_interval attribute. Some chips also expose temp1_alarm.

Add a sysfs-Interface section to Documentation/hwmon/lm75.rst to
describe the supported attributes and clarify that temp1_alarm and the
write permissions of update_interval depend on the chip.

 The LM77 is not supported, contrary to what we pretended for a long time.
 Both chips are simply not compatible, value encoding differs.
