Jean Delvare b029b8f861 sensord: Drop workaround needed by old versions of rrdtool. The bug
(missing getopt variables initialization) was fixed in rrdtool version
1.2.1, 2.5 years ago.

Jean Delvare 67218f03c3 libsensors: No longer depend on libsysfs.
Instead, access sysfs directly, using 3 embedded helper
functions. My motivations for doing this are:
* As far as I know, libsysfs is no longer maintained.
* libsysfs does much more than we need. For example, when asking for a
device attribute list, libsysfs will read the contents and permissions
of all attributes. Not only does this waste CPU cycles per se, but in
the case of hwmon driver it also triggers register reads, which can be
slow for SMBus chips.
* libsysfs enforces the difference between devices and class devices,
while future changes will be easier if we can handle both types alike.

Jean Delvare 35a5a7dbce Use /etc/sensors3.conf as the default configuration file. If it can't
be found, fallback to /etc/sensors.conf. This allows for an old
libsensors and a new libsensors to be installed in parallel, and each
one has its own configuration file.

One important change here is that the default configuration file will
be installed as /etc/sensors3.conf by "make install".

Drop all the instructions regarding kernel modules compilation. Drop
documentation about Makefile variables, they are already documented
in the Makefile itself.

Jean Delvare a83ef92c9a Delete mkdev.sh. i2c device nodes are created by devfs or udev on most
2.6 kernel-based systems, for others they should have been created at
system installation time. If they are missing, sensors-detect will run
MAKEDEV to create them.
