hwmon: Add driver for ADT7411 voltage and temperature sensor
Add basic support for the ADT7411. Reads out all conversion results (via I2C,
SPI yet missing) and allows some on-the-fly configuration. Tested with a
custom board.

It provides a 10-bit analog to digital +converter which measures 1 temperature, vdd and 8 input voltages. It has an +internal temperature sensor, but an external one can also be connected (one +loses 2 inputs then).
