[PATCH 1/2] thermal: introduce thermal_zone_lookup_temperature helper function

[Eduardo Valentin]

This patch adds a helper function to get temperature of
a thermal zone, based on the zone type name.

It will perform a zone name lookup and return the last
sensor temperature reading. In case the zone is not found
or if the required parameters are invalid, it will return
the corresponding error code.
