To fix issue #1003 and add support for newer CPUs released after 2017.

The service was throwing an exception on startup, and this led to the program not working, and creating over 4000 startup failures in the event log.

The cause was that it was unable to find the CPU sensors. Upgrading the Intel CPU code to a newer version of openhardwaremonitor-0.9.5 seems to have fixed the problem.

Note that this is a hack-job of selectively copy-pasting lines from openhardwaremonitor-0.9.5 in a way to not break compatibility, the code no longer matches any released version. Ideally, we'd want to upgrade all the code to openhardwaremonitor-0.9.5, but some code that uses it currently doesn't work with that version.

Perhaps we'd also like to have the service no longer set to endlessly restart itself on every failure.

This appears to cause abrupt shutdowns when AC is not plugged in, will investigate.
