Allwinner SoCs from H3 (including H5, A64, etc) have a new version of 
thermal sensor, and needs a new driver for it. 

Add such a driver. 

Currently only H3 is supported, but other SoCs are easily to be 
supported by adding new formula and set the sensor number.

There's no need to create a new driver for that. This can be handled 
by the GPADC driver we already have. 
sun8i-ths is not GPADC at all.

The latest SoC I know that use GPADC as thermal sensor is A33.
It's not called the same way, but it definitely is an evolution of the
same controller. There's no need for a new driver, only reworking what
is already there.
