hwmon: (jc42) more helpful documentation
commit d5622f5b6c4671d1588ccc9056705366d4eb312a upstream. The documentation lists standard numbers and chip names in excruciating detail, but that's all it does. To help mere mortals in deciding whether to enable this driver, mention what this sensor is for and in which systems it might be found. Also add a link to the actual JC 42.4 specification.

This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module
will be called jc42.
