Thoroughly review sensor handling.

Because of the design of sensor framework, OpenBSD wants to interpret sensor values in kernel. But we don't want to implement all specification of IPMI sensors. Investigate and draw a line.

Understood: "Get Sensor Thresholds Command" is to retrieve configured threshold values. To know if sensor is reporting problems, use "Get Sensor Reading Command" and read "present threshold comparison status" byte.

jmatthew@'s diff is correct. The current code in CVS (from Rev. 1.3) is wrong.

Threshold values will be configured by ipmitool via /dev/ipmi* in the future.
