mlxsw: core_thermal: Extend internal structures to support multi thermal areas
Introduce intermediate level for thermal zones areas. Currently all thermal zones are associated with thermal objects located within the main board. Such objects are created during driver initialization and removed during driver de-initialization. For line cards in modular system the thermal zones are to be associated with the specific line card. They should be created whenever new line card is available (inserted, validated, powered and enabled) and removed, when line card is getting unavailable. The thermal objects found on the line card #n are accessed by setting slot index to #n, while for access to objects found on the main board slot index should be set to default value zero. Each thermal area contains the set of thermal zones associated with particular slot index. Thus introduction of thermal zone areas allows to use the same APIs for the main board and line cards, by adding slot index argument.
