powerpmac_thermal: Improve thermal regulation on G5 quad models
Add a new "high temp" threshold below the max temp, in order to ramp the
fans (or pump for liquid cooled quads) sooner, and avoid the maximum
temperature. From the PR, this makes older G5 quads louder, but usable,
instead of hitting max temperature and forcing a thermal shutdown.
