    chrome ec: Add ACPI Device for ALS if enabled
    
    The EC can export ALS information if the sensor is attached
    to it directly rather than to the host.  This adds a basic
    ACPI ALS device and implements the required information.
    
    The kernel does not use the _ALR tuple set but it is required
    by the ACPI spec so this just adds the sample two point
    response curve defined in ACPI 5.0 section 9.2.5.
    
    The EC does not currently send events for lux value changes so
    a polling interval of 1 second is defined.
    
    BUG=chrome-os-partner:24208
    BRANCH=None
    TEST=build and boot on samus, add acpi-als driver to the kernel
    and read /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0/in_illuminance_raw
