Subject: [PATCH v2] thermal: Move ABI documentation do Documentation/ABI

The thermal ABI is described, together with the internal
development details at:

	Documentation/driver-api/thermal/sysfs-api.rst

Move the sysfs API description to Documentation/ABI,
ensuring that scripts/get_abi.pl will properly parse it.

While here, also update MAINTAINERS for it to point to
the documentation.
