ACPI: platform-profile: call sysfs_notify() from platform_profile_store()

Drivers like thinkpad_acpi and ideapad_laptop call the
platform_profile_notify() helper when the profile is changed by hardware
(the embedded-controller/EC) in response to an EC handled hotkey.

This allows userspace to monitor for such changes by polling for POLLPRI
on the platform_profile sysfs file. But the profile can also be changed
underneath a userspace program monitoring it by anonther userspace program
storing a new value.

Add a sysfs_notify() call to platform_profile_store(), so that userspace
programs monitoring for changes also get notified in this case.

Also update the documentation to document that POLLPRI polling can be
used to watch for changes.

ACPI: platform: Add balanced-performance platform profile

Some devices, including most Microsoft Surface devices, have a platform
profile somewhere inbetween balanced and performance. More specifically,
adding this profile allows the following mapping on Surface devices:

Vendor Name Platform Profile
------------------------------------------
Battery Saver low-power
Recommended balanced
Better Performance balanced-performance
Best Performance performance

Documentation: Add documentation for new platform_profile sysfs attribute

On modern systems the platform performance, temperature, fan and other
hardware related characteristics are often dynamically configurable. The
profile is often automatically adjusted to the load by some
automatic-mechanism (which may very well live outside the kernel).

These auto platform-adjustment mechanisms often can be configured with
one of several 'platform-profiles', with either a bias towards low-power
consumption or towards performance (and higher power consumption and
thermals).

Introduce a new platform_profile sysfs API which offers a generic API for
selecting the performance-profile of these automatic-mechanisms.
