Notify users of this driver that each pwmX
attribute controls fan number X, meaning that
probing of pwm channels is unnecessary.

When adding the Inspiron 3505 to the fan type blacklist,
the Documentation was not updated to mention the firmware
bug on this machine.
Fix that.

Until now, only the temperature sensors where exported thru
the thermal subsystem. Export the fans as "dell-smm-fan[1-3]" too
to make them available as cooling devices.
Also update Documentation and fix a minor issue with the alphabetic
ordering of the includes.

Document the SMM interface as requested by Pali Rohar.
Since Dell does not offer any offical documentation
regarding the SMM interface, the necessary information
was extracted from the dell_smm_hwmon driver and other
sources.

The nominal speed of each fan can be obtained with
i8k_get_fan_nominal_speed(), however the result is not available
from userspace.
Change that by adding fanX_min, fanX_max and fanX_target attributes.
All are RO since fan control happens over pwm.
Tested on a Dell Inspiron 3505 and a Dell Latitude C600.

Part of the documentation is taken from the README of the userspace
utils (https://github.com/vitorafsr/i8kutils). The license is GPL-2+
and the author Massimo Dal Zotto is already credited as author of
the module. Therefore there should be no copyright problem.
I also added a paragraph with specific information on the experimental
support for automatic BIOS fan control.
