hwmon: (coretemp) Add comments describing the handling of HT CPUs
The coretemp driver provides a single set of device attributes for each physical core of a HT CPU to avoid duplicate sensors. This functionality was introduced with commit d883b9f0 ("hwmon: (coretemp) Skip duplicate CPU entries"). Commit e40cc4bd ("x86/hwmon: register alternate sibling upon CPU removal") extends this functionality to register the HT sibling of a CPU which is taken offline, to ensure that sensor attributes are provided if at least one HT sibling of a core is online. Add comments into the code describing the functionality in some more detail.
