After discussion in merbanan#1640 this commit adjusts the comment about the WH0290 particulate sensor, mostly surrounding the nature of the field labeled PM10. The measurement of the sensor serial port was done by @peteakalad, and the determination of the pm2.5/pm10 conversion was done by @gdt with input from @peteakalad. (This commit does not change variable names or API-visible text.)

Fixed, I think - but I didn't understand until just now.
As discussed at length in merbanan#1460, the value transmitted as PM10 is not actally PM10, but a value that is slightly more than PM2.5.

After discussion in #1640
this commit adjusts the comment about the WH0290 particulate sensor,
mostly surrounding the nature of the field labeled PM10.
The measurement of the sensor serial port was done by @peteakalad, and
the determination of the pm2.5/pm10 conversion was done by @gdt.
Following consensus from #1640, change description to call it "estimated", as a compromise betwen calculated and alleged.
