Documentation: syfs-class-firmware-attributes: Lenovo Opcode support
Newer Lenovo BIOS's have an opcode GUID support interface which provides

- ability to set System, hard drive and NVMe passwords
Add the support for these new passwords, and the ability to select
user/master mode and the drive index.
