Subject: [PATCH] usb: typec: ucsi: acpi: Assume UCSI 1.2 on Acer Nitro
 ANV15-41

The Acer Nitro ANV15-41 exposes a functional UCSI ACPI PPM but
reports a UCSI VERSION value of zero.

ucsi_register() rejects a zero version with -ENODEV, leaving the
system without registered USB Type-C connectors.

The PPM works correctly when using the UCSI 1.2 layout. With UCSI
1.2 assumed, both Type-C connectors register correctly and USB Power
Delivery negotiation works.

Add a DMI-specific UCSI operation for the Acer Nitro ANV15-41 that
substitutes UCSI 1.2 only when firmware reports a zero version.
Preserve any valid non-zero firmware version.

Tested on an Acer Nitro ANV15-41 with BIOS V1.51.
