[PATCH v2] Documentation: hwmon: lm75: document sysfs interface

[Chen-Shi-Hong]

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,
and temp1_label is available if a label is provided for the device.

Add a sysfs-Interface section to Documentation/hwmon/lm75.rst to
describe the supported attributes and clarify that temp1_alarm,
temp1_label, and the write permissions of update_interval depend on the
chip.

Change log is missing.

Yes, I do see Sashiko's reply, but that is not an excuse for neglecting
to provide a change log.

When I tried to apply this patch, I noticed that a similar patch is
already queued in hwmon-next. Sorry that I didn't realize this earlier.
