[PATCH v4 1/2] ACPI / button: Add KEY_LID_OPEN/KEY_LID_CLOSE for new usage model

There are many AML tables reporting wrong initial lid state, and some of
them never report lid open state. As a proxy layer acting between, ACPI
button driver is not able to handle all such cases, but need to re-define
the usage model of the ACPI lid. That is:
1. It's initial state is not reliable;
2. There may not be an open event;
3. Userspace should only take action against the close event which is
reliable, always sent after a real lid close.

OTOH, using an input switch event for the lid device on such platforms can
cause the loss of the close event, but the platforms purposely want to use
these close events to trigger power saving actions.

So we need to introduce a new ABI, which is input key events based, not
input switch events based.

This patch adds a set of new input key events so that the new userspace
programs can use them to handle this usage model correctly. And in the
meanwhile, the old input switch event is kept so that no old programs will
be broken by the ABI change.
