Hwmon

Hwmon is a kernel-based subsystem that provides an interface to monitor various hardware sensors and it's the new default source for sensors. This will benefit the extension on many levels: performance, efficiency, reliability, and compatibility.
lm-sensors is not a required dependency anymore, but it will remain as an option if you have it installed, even though it's not recommended.

We strongly encourage you to manually move all your sensors to Hwmon from the Astra Monitor Settings panel. The sensors list in the menu is already on Hwmon by default, but you can still switch to lm-sensors if you want to from the settings panel.

Since this is a major change, we recommend you to test all your sensors and report any issues you may encounter.
