I²C Tools for Linux

As of version 3.0.0, the I²C tools that used to be part of the lm-sensors package have been split to a separate package. The rationale for that move is that not all hardware monitoring chips are I²C devices, and not all I²C devices are hardware monitoring chips, so having everything in a single package was confusing and impractical.

All versions of Linux are supported, as long as I²C support is included in the kernel.
