thermal: Rephrase the Kconfig text for thermal
The thermal subsystem may have relied on sysfs in 2008 when it was introduced, but these days the thermal zones will more often than not come from the hardware descriptions and not from sysfs. Drop the "Generic" phrases as well: there are no non-generic drivers that I know of, the thermal framework is by definition generic. Reword a bit and fix some grammar.
