power_supply: add SCOPE attribute to power supplies
This adds a "scope" attribute to a power_supply, which indicates how much of the system it powers. It appears in sysfs as "scope" or in the uevent file as POWER_SUPPLY_SCOPE=. There are presently three possible values: Unknown - unknown power topology System - the power supply powers the whole system Device - it powers a specific device, or tree of devices A power supply which doesn't have a "scope" attribute should be assumed to have "System" scope. In general, usermode should assume that loss of all System-scoped power supplies will power off the whole system, but any single one is sufficient to power the system.
