ACPI: docs: Update the pm_profile sysfs attribute documentation

The list of possible pm_profile values listed in sysfs-acpi-pmprofile
does not include the tablet one (8), so update it.

While at it, rewrite the description so it is more accurate and somewhat
easier to follow.

docs: ABI: cleanup several ABI documents

There are some ABI documents that, while they don't generate
any warnings, they have issues when parsed by get_abi.pl script
on its output result.

Address them, in order to provide a clean output.

docs: ABI: stable: make files ReST compatible

Several entries at the stable ABI files won't parse if we pass
them directly to the ReST output.

Adjust them, in order to allow adding their contents as-is at
the stable ABI book.

ACPI: Export FADT pm_profile integer value to userspace

There are a lot userspace approaches to detect the usage of the
platform (laptop, workstation, server, ...) and adjust kernel tunables
accordingly (io/process scheduler, power management, ...).

These approaches need constant maintaining and are ugly to implement
(detect PCMCIA controller -> laptop,
does not work on recent systems anymore, ...)
On ACPI systems there is an easy and reliable way (if implemented
in BIOS and most recent platforms have this value set).
-> export it to userspace.
