Similar to other HWMON sensors add a section in the
documentation describing the sysfs attributes, their
permissions and a short description.

Sashiko AI review found 3 potential issue(s):
- [Low] Missing `temp1_alarm` sysfs attribute in the documentation.
- [Low] Inaccurate permissions documented for `update_interval`.
- [Low] Extraneous trailing colons in sysfs attribute names.

docs: hwmon: (lm75) Add section for sysfs interface
This commit adds a new section to the lm75 documentation detailing the
sysfs attributes, their permissions, and brief descriptions.

This isn't a bug, but should the trailing colons on these attribute names
be removed? Sysfs filenames do not contain colons, and the update_interval
attribute below correctly omits it.
> +update_interval RW Update conversions interval in milliseconds
Is update_interval always read/write? Looking at lm75_is_visible() in the
driver, it appears to only grant write permissions (0644) if the device
supports multiple sample times. For chips with a single fixed sample time,
the attribute is restricted to read-only (0444). Could the documentation
reflect this conditional permission?
> +=============================== ======= ===========================================
Should temp1_alarm be included in this list? The driver code exposes
HWMON_T_ALARM as read-only for chips that support it (such as the as6200
and tmp112), so the current documentation seems slightly incomplete without
it.
