power: supply: Support VBAT-to-Ri lookup tables

In Samsung devices, the method used to compensate for temperature,
age, load etc is by way of VBAT to Ri tables, which correlates the
battery voltage under load (VBAT) to an internal resistance (Ri).

Using this Ri and a measurement of the current out of the battery
(IBAT) the open circuit voltage (OCV) can be calculated as:

  OCV = VBAT - (Ri * IBAT)

The details are described in comments to struct
power_supply_battery_info in the commit.

Since not all batteries supply this VBAT-to-Ri data, the fallback
method to use the temperature-to-Ri lookup table can also be used
as a fallback.

Add two helper functions to check if we have the tables needed for
using power_supply_vbat2ri() or power_supply_temp2resist_simple()
respectively, so capacity estimation code can choose which one
to employ.

*
* DETERMINING BATTERY CAPACITY:
*
* Several members of the struct deal with trying to determine the remaining
* capacity in the battery, usually as a percentage of charge. In practice
* many chargers uses a so-called fuel gauge or coloumb counter that measure
* how much charge goes into the battery and how much goes out (+/- leak
* consumption). This does not help if we do not know how much capacity the
* battery has to begin with, such as when it is first used or was taken out
* and charged in a separate charger. Therefore many capacity algorithms use
* the open circuit voltage with a look-up table to determine the rough
* capacity of the battery. The open circuit voltage can be conceptualized
* with an ideal voltage source (V) in series with an internal resistance (Ri)
* like this:
*
* +-------> IBAT >----------------+
* | ^ |
* [ ] Ri | |
* | | VBAT |
* o <---------- | |
* +| ^ | [ ] Rload
* .---. | | |
* | V | | OCV | |
* '---' | | |
* | | | |
* GND +-------------------------------+
*
* If we disconnect the load (here simplified as a fixed resistance Rload)
* and measure VBAT with a infinite impedance voltage meter we will get
* VBAT = OCV and this assumption is sometimes made even under load, assuming
* Rload is insignificant. However this will be of dubious quality because the
* load is rarely that small and Ri is strongly nonlinear depending on
* temperature and how much capacity is left in the battery due to the
* chemistry involved.
*
* In many practical applications we cannot just disconnect the battery from
* the load, so instead we often try to measure the instantaneous IBAT (the
* current out from the battery), estimate the Ri and thus calculate the
* voltage drop over Ri and compensate like this:
*
* OCV = VBAT - (IBAT * Ri)
*
* The tables vbat2ri_discharging and vbat2ri_charging are used to determine
* (by interpolation) the Ri from the VBAT under load. These curves are highly
* nonlinear and may need many datapoints but can be found in datasheets for
* some batteries. This gives the compensated open circuit voltage (OCV) for
* the battery even under load. Using this method will also compensate for
* temperature changes in the environment: this will also make the internal
* resistance change, and it will affect the VBAT under load, so correlating
* VBAT to Ri takes both remaining capacity and temperature into consideration.
*
* Alternatively a manufacturer can specify how the capacity of the battery
* is dependent on the battery temperature which is the main factor affecting
* Ri. As we know all checmical reactions are faster when it is warm and slower
* when it is cold. You can put in 1500mAh and only get 800mAh out before the
* voltage drops too low for example. This effect is also highly nonlinear and
* the purpose of the table resist_table: this will take a temperature and
* tell us how big percentage of Ri the specified temperature correlates to.
* Usually we have 100% of the factory_internal_resistance_uohm at 25 degrees
* Celsius.
*
* The power supply class itself doesn't use this struct as of now.
