[Bug 1322625] [NEW] sensord daemon does not detects chips

[Pali]

Public bug reported:

sensord daemon is started by /etc/rc2.d/S20sensord init.d script and it
is started before /etc/init/module-init-tools.conf upstart script which
loading modules from /etc/modules. If hwmon sensors is not detected at
sensord startup it is not used. So for all hwmon drivers which must be
manually loaded (e.g coretemp) sensord does detect chips and so it is
not working.

So for modern intel machines which using coretemp for temperature
monitor, sensord package is not working.

Solution for fixing this bug is to fix ordering of startup script.
Upstart script /etc/init/module-init-tools.conf must be exetuted before
starting /etc/rc2.d/S20sensord (/etc/init/sensord)
