hwmon: (dell-smm) Add cooling device support
Until now, only the temperature sensors where exported thru
the thermal subsystem. Export the fans as "dell-smm-fan[1-3]" too
to make them available as cooling devices.
Also update Documentation and fix a minor issue with the alphabetic
ordering of the includes.
