The PCF8591 can't be detected, don't even try. There are plenty of
other means to instantiate i2c devices these days.

Clean up the pcf8591 driver documentation:
* The PCF8591 chip is now an NXP product.
* Fix a sysfs path.
* Fix the name of sysfs attributes.
* And a few other random fixes.

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.
