Move the pcf8591 driver to hwmon

Directory drivers/i2c/chips is going away, so drivers there must find
new homes. For the pcf8591 driver, the best choice seems to be the
hwmon subsystem. While the Philips PCF8591 device isn't a typical
hardware monitoring chip, its DAC interface is compatible with the
hwmon one, so it fits somewhat.

If a better subsystem is ever created for ADC/DAC chips, the driver
could be moved there.
