sensor: Add result exponent to the sensor yaml
Result exponent sets the decimal point location for the result before
the linearization function is applied. This is different from the scale
implemented by the sensors dbus objects. The scale is the scaling factor
to get the value for the units specified for the sensor. Linearization
is done after applying the scale on the raw sensor value.
