docs: hwmon: Add an index file and rename docs to *.rst

Now that all files were converted to ReST format, rename them
and add an index.

+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements support for the National Semiconductor LM70
+temperature sensor.
+
+The LM70 temperature sensor chip supports a single temperature sensor.
+It communicates with a host processor (or microcontroller) via an
+SPI/Microwire Bus interface.
+
+Communication with the LM70 is simple: when the temperature is to be sensed,
+the driver accesses the LM70 using SPI communication: 16 SCLK cycles
+comprise the MOSI/MISO loop. At the end of the transfer, the 11-bit 2's
+complement digital temperature (sent via the SIO line), is available in the
+driver for interpretation. This driver makes use of the kernel's in-core
+SPI support.
+
+As a real (in-tree) example of this "SPI protocol driver" interfacing
+with a "SPI master controller driver", see drivers/spi/spi_lm70llp.c
+and its associated documentation.
+
+The LM74 and TMP121/TMP122/TMP123/TMP124 are very similar; main difference is
+13-bit temperature data (0.0625 degrees celsius resolution).
+
+The TMP122/TMP124 also feature configurable temperature thresholds.
+
+The LM71 is also very similar; main difference is 14-bit temperature
+data (0.03125 degrees celsius resolution).
