hwmon: (ntc_thermistor) Add ntc thermistor to thermal subsystem as a sensor.

To get more comprehensive and integrated thermal management, it adds ntc
thermistor to thermal framework as a thermal sensor. It's governed thermal
susbsystem only if it is described in DT node. Otherwise, it just notifies
temperature to userspace via sysfs as it used to be.
