platform/x86: alienware-wmi-wmax: Add support for manual fan control
All models with the "AWCC" WMAX device support a way of manually
controlling fans.
The PWM duty cycle of a fan can't be controlled directly. Instead the
AWCC interface let's us tune a fan `boost` value, which has the
following empirically discovered, approximate behavior over the PWM
value:
pwm = pwm_base + (fan_boost / 255) * (pwm_max - pwm_base)
Where the pwm_base is the locked PWM value controlled by the FW and
fan_boost is a value between 0 and 255.
Expose this fan_boost knob as a custom HWMON attribute.
