Suggest Adding SMCDellSensors to repo #29

Thanks very much for this repo - just bought an XPS 9570, and wanted to get OpenCore up and running. Your repo made this awesomely easy.

May I suggest that you add the SMCDellSensors kext? this enables things like iStat Menus to correctly pull platform sensor data, a big win in my book!

(it hooks into VirtualSMC from my understanding).

Will report back after attempting to enable this myself on how it went.

Worked fine after adding the kext to Kexts and a section to the config file. Highly recommend!

Thanks for your input! Actually, I have been using the kext for quite some time now, just never felt the urge to update the repo.
