hwmon: (k10temp) Update documentation and add temp2_input info
It's been a while since the k10temp documentation has been updated. There are new CPU families supported as well as Tdie temp was added. This patch adds all missing families which I was able to find from git history and provides more info about Tctl vs Tdie exported temps.
