hwmon: scmi-hwmon: implement change_mode

The above subject gives me no clue as what this change wants to achieve.
At minimum you need to mention thermal zones as HWMON supports more than
just thermal sensors and change mode mentioned in $subject applies to
only thermal zones.

Again above applies to thermal zones only in this patch. It doesn't
cover non-thermal sensors, so prefer if you refer it as thermal zones
instead of sensors.

The change itself looks good. I will ack once you fix the subject and
description so that Guenter can pick up the change.
