[Ovmsdev] Improvements to BMS command display

Michael,

regarding separate temperature / voltage display, I suggest adding sub 
commands, i.e. "bms temp" / "bms volt".

Regarding the layout: it's difficult to tell what will fit, especially 
in vertical orientation, as this depends on the display and font size 
chosen. With a font size of 12.0 on my Huawei, max 4 columns would fit:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rasYOBL8lY1NwM9oq_gL6pvcX-uinJjj/view?usp=share_link

Regarding your temperature sensors: it's possible you've actually got 
<modules>+1 sensors if they are placed between the modules. You should 
see that when heating up the battery by driving, an empty/reserved 
module space wouldn't heat up as much as filled modules. For a layout of 
temperature sensors between the cell modules, you could decide to derive 
the module temperature by building the average of it's adjacent sensors.

Regards,
Michael
