thermal: core: Add sanity checks for polling_delay and passive_delay

If polling_delay is nonzero and passive_delay is greater than
polling_delay, the thermal zone temperature will be updated less
often when tz->passive is nonzero, which is not as expected.  Make
the thermal zone registration fail with -EINVAL in that case as
this is a clear thermal zone configuration mistake.

If polling_delay is nonzero and passive_delay is 0, which is regarded
as a valid thermal zone configuration, the thermal zone will use polling
except when tz->passive is nonzero.  However, the expected behavior in
that case is to continue temperature polling with the same delay value
regardless of tz->passive, so set passive_delay to the polling_delay
value then.
