The initcalls like to play joke. In our case, the thermal-netlink
initcall is called after the thermal-core initcall but this one sends
a notification before the former is initialized. No issue was spotted,
but it could lead to a memory corruption, so instead of relying on the
core_initcall for the thermal-netlink, let's initialize directly from
the thermal-core init routine, so we have full control of the init
ordering.

When the network is not configured, the netlink is disabled on all
the system. The thermal framework assumed the netlink is always
opt-in.
Fix this by adding a Kconfig option for the netlink notification,
defaulting to yes and depending on CONFIG_NET.
As the change implies multiple stubs and in order to not pollute the
internal thermal header, the thermal_nelink.h has been added and
included in the thermal_core.h, so this one regain some kind of
clarity.
