hwmon: (core) Rename groups parameter in API to extra_groups 

The 'groups' parameter of hwmon_device_register_with_info() and
devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info() is only necessary if extra
non-standard attributes need to be provided. Rename the parameter
to extra_groups and clarify the documentation.

If the hardware monitoring device is registered with
hwmon_device_register_with_info or devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info,
it is most likely not necessary to provide sysfs attributes. Only non-standard

it is most likely not necessary to provide sysfs attributes. Only additional

functions is used.
The header file linux/hwmon-sysfs.h provides a number of useful macros to
declare and use hardware monitoring sysfs attributes.
