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.
