hwmon: (lm90) Add explicit support for MAX6648/MAX6692
Unlike MAX6646/MAX6647/MAX6649, MAX6648 and MAX6692 only support a temperature range of 0..127 degrees C. Separate support for the two sets of chips to be able to support maximum temperature ranges correctly for all chips. Introduce new feature flag to indicate temperature support up to 255 degrees C. Since the chips are almost identical except for the supported temperature range, automatic chip detection is limited. Effectively this means that MAX6648 may be mis-detected as MAX6649 when auto-detected, but there is nothing we can do about that. Devicetree nodes are not added for the added chips since it is quite unlikely that such old chips will ever be used in a devicetree based system. They can be added later if needed.
