hwmon: (it87) Support for 16-bit fan reading in it8712 >= rev 0x07
The it8712 chip supports 16-bit fan tachometers in revisions >= 0x07.
Revisions >= 0x08 dropped support for 8-bit fan divisor registers. The
patch enables 16-bit fan readings on all revisions >= 0x07 just like
the it8716 and it8718 chips.
