ThinkPad X1 Fold 16 Gen 1 firmware reports whether the keyboard is
magnetically attached (on the screen), but thinkpad-acpi does not expose
this to userspace. The state can be obtained via ACPI methods: GDST (get
device state).

Add a read-only keyboard_attached_on_screen sysfs attribute, gated by
a DMI match.

Cache the state and emit a sysfs notification on
TP_HKEY_EV_TABLET_CHANGED (0x60c0) when it changes. Initialize the
cache during hotkey setup and refresh it before the resume notification
to keep the state consistent across suspend and resume.

This replaces the v3 patch:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260731082818.1578104-1-pithenrich2d@gmail.com/

Changes v1 -> v2:
 * Use ACPI method instead of using the EC directly (thanks Mark).
Changes v2 -> v3:
 * Added documentation to thinkpad-acpi.rst
 * Patched against current thinkpad_acpi.c
Changes v3 -> v4:
 * Rebased onto the current platform-drivers-x86 review-ilpo-next branch.
 * Wrapped long lines reported by checkpatch.

+X1 Fold keyboard attachment
+---------------------------
+
+sysfs attribute: keyboard_attached_on_screen
+
+ThinkPad X1 Fold 16 Gen 1 systems can report whether the keyboard is
+currently attached on-screen.
+
+This attribute is currently supported on ThinkPad X1 Fold 16 Gen 1
+systems only.
+
+The command to check the keyboard attachment state is::
+
+	cat /sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi/keyboard_attached_on_screen
+
+The values are:
+
+- 0 if the keyboard is not attached on-screen
+- 1 if the keyboard is attached on-screen
+
+The property is read-only. If feature is not supported then the sysfs
+attribute is not created.
