Allow selecting a hwmon device for the temperature module by its name instead of a fixed hwmon path. This avoids fragile configurations that break when new hwmon devices are added and the kernel changes hwmon ordering. The hwmon-name option is mutually exclusive with hwmon-path and hwmon-path-abs to prevent ambiguous configurations.

The nix fail seems to be coming from upstream, from cava. |

Currently, the temperature module relies on hwmon paths, which can change when new devices are added or kernel driver order changes. This makes configurations fragile; for example, adding a USB device like a new gaming controller can break the CPU or GPU temperature readings.
What this PR does:
hwmon-nameoption for the temperature module.input-filenameto be set.hwmon-namecannot be used withhwmon-pathorhwmon-path-absto avoid conflicts.This provides a more stable and predictable way to configure temperature sensors, preventing breakage due to dynamic hwmon ordering.
Let me know what you think!
Kind regards.
