sensor: add a family field in the handler
Currently, we are hijacking the last bit of the resource field of the
sensor handler to differentiate the sensor families and route the
opal_sensor_read() call to the appropriate component.
Let's reserve the last 3bits and provide an API to set the sensor
family for current use and future use. This gives us a maximum of 8
families and 32 resource classes. The FSP uses 15, so we should be
fine for a while.
