thermal: Added Bang-bang thermal governor
The bang-bang thermal governor uses a hysteresis to switch abruptly on or off a cooling device. It is intended to control fans, which can not be throttled but just switched on or off. Bang-bang cannot be set as default governor as it is intended for special devices only. For those special devices the driver needs to explicitely request it.
