Subject: [PATCH] overlays: Use current I2C Sysfs in README examples
Linux v6.12 (7e722083fcc3e) removed I2C_COMPAT making
/sys/class/i2c-adapter no longer available in userspace. This commit
adjusts the dtoverlays documentation to refer to the current I2C Sysfs
(/sys/bus/i2c/devices).

Overlays are loaded using the "dtoverlay" config.txt setting. As an example,
consider I2C Real Time Clock drivers. In the pre-DT world these would be loaded
by writing a magic string comprising a device identifier and an I2C address to
-a special file in /sys/class/i2c-adapter, having first loaded the driver for
