hwmon: (hp-wmi-sensors) Fix failure to load on EliteDesk 800 G6
The EliteDesk 800 G6 stores a raw WMI string within the ACPI object in its BIOS corresponding to one instance of HPBIOS_PlatformEvents.Name. This is evidently a valid way of representing a WMI data item as far as the Microsoft ACPI-WMI mapper is concerned, but is preventing the driver from loading. This seems quite rare, but add support for such strings. Treating this as a quirk pretty much means adding that support anyway. Also clean up an oversight in update_numeric_sensor_from_wobj() in which the result of hp_wmi_strdup() was being used without error checking.
