platform/x86: thinkpad_acpi: add documentation for battery charge control
Add a section to the Thinkpad ACPI extras driver documentation detailing
the provided features that may be used to modify battery charge related state.
As of yet, only charge_control_{start,end}_threshold attributes are supported
and documented.
