PowerCap: Add class driver

The power capping framework providing a consistent interface between the
kernel and user space that allows power capping drivers to expose their
settings to user space in a uniform way.
The overall design of the framework is described in the documentation
added by the previous patch in this series.

The power capping sysfs interface allows kernel subsystems to expose power
capping settings to user space in a consistent way. Usually, it consists
of multiple control types that determine which settings may be exposed and
power zones representing parts of the system that can be subject to power
capping.
If you want this code to be compiled in, say Y here.
