Description

A system's smbios data includes temperature probes. We should consider decoding these and printing something human-readable. This is as opposed to the current value:

ID    SIZE TYPE
43    27   SMB_TYPE_TPROBE (type 28) (temperature probe)

         offset:   0 1 2 3  4 5 6 7  8 9 a b  c d e f  0123456789abcdef
            0:  1c162b00 01000080 00800080 00800080  ..+.............
         0x10:  00000000 00804c4d 373841             ......LM78A

To test this, I decoded several different smbios images and manually made sure that the bits in question lined up with what we were displaying.

    9569 smbios(1M) could decode voltage and curent probes
    9570 smbios(1M) could decode cooling devices
    9571 smbios(1M) could decode temperature probes
    9572 smb_impl.h structs should comment corresponding type
    9573 overshifted smbios major version leads to undershifted data
    9574 smbios(1M) shouldn't print non-existant bios versions
