Resolves: RHEL-16966
At this point, the plugin supports setting a single sysfs attribute,
platform_profile.
The 3 basic ACPI platform profiles are low-power, balanced, and
performance. These are mapped to the generic powersave,
balanced, and *-performance TuneD profiles.
Fallback to the 'powersave' CPU scaling governor if 'conservative' is
not available. This can happen if the intel_pstate driver is active - at
least on newer kernels, the only available governors are 'powersave' and
'performance' if the driver is active.
As far as we can tell, the 'powersave' governor is the closest to the
'conservative' governor.

Tested on an AMD machine with acpi-cpufreq kernel driver providing
ondemand, conservative,... governors.
Without this line, one gets:
tuned.plugins.plugin_cpu: ignoring governor 'conservative' on cpu 'cpu7', it
is not supported
when switching to balanced profile.
With this line you see:
tuned.plugins.plugin_cpu: setting governor 'ondemand' on cpu 'cpu2'
Be careful: Order matters!
tuned seem to read profile config file line by line or section by section
and directly tries to apply things.
If order of these lines are exchanged:
[modules]
cpufreq_conservative=+r
[cpu]
governor=conservative
you fall back to previous error again. Therefore the newly introduced
[modules] section is not put at the end, but nearly at top.
Prefix DPM states with 'dpm-' to prevent future name collisions.
Also, change the state in powersave profiles to 'battery' - there's
no such DPM state as powersave.

Now, in addition to the already supported Radeon power methods, it also
supports:
radeon_powersave=DPM
where DPM can be 'battery', 'balanced', or 'performance'.
It also supports fallback, so one can write:
radeon_powersave=balanced, auto
where it tries 'balanced' DPM profile and if it fails or is not
supported it fallbacks to the non DPM 'auto' profile.
As delimiters colon, semilocon, comma or whitespace can be used.
It also switched upstream profiles to prefer DPM.

Added new tuned-adm functionality 'profile_info'. It has optional parameter
'profile_name'. If called without parameter, active profile is used.
It outputs name of the profile it is querying, profile summary, and profile
description. If there is no profile summary or description available it
outputs empty string(s).
Extended tuned-adm 'list' functionality. It now displays profile summary
in the list (if available).
Added summary to profiles.
Extended D-Bus API to support the new feature and for better Cockpit support:
- Added 'profile_info' method. It gets profile_name argument and it queries
the requested profile for information. If profile_name is empty string it
queries the active/selected profile. It returns tuple of the following
format (status, profile_name, summary, description), where status is
boolean. If it is False, the query mechanism failed and the other fields
don't contain valid data
- Added 'profiles2' method. It's extension of 'profiles' method. It returns
list of tuples. Tuples have following format:
(profile_name, profile_summary)

This plugin handles SCSI hosts. On Linux these are also used for SATA.
Currently it only supports ALPM setting, e.g.:
[scsi_host]
devices=host0
alpm=medium_power
ALPM is set per SATA/SCSI host. If SCSI host doesn't support ALPM
(it is SATA/AHCI specific), it is skipped and message is logged into
Tuned log with 'info' loglevel.
Concurrently the ALPM settings were removed from the 'disk' plugin.

This policy sets the link to the second lowest power
state (PARTIAL) when there is no I/O on the disk. This
mode is designed to allow transitions in link power states
(for example during times of intermittent heavy I/O and
idle I/O) with as small impact on performance as possible.
This may save significant amount of power in idle periods
of the link, especially on laptops. E.g. on x240 the average
AC power consumption dropped from approx. 5 W to only 2.5 W.

The 'balanced' and 'powersave' profiles used incorrect setting names in
the audio section, thus making audio codec power management not being
enabled. Make such profiles use the correct setting names.
This also fixes some warnings:
WARNING tuned.plugins.base: Unknown option 'hda_intel_powersave' for plugin 'AudioPlugin'.
WARNING tuned.plugins.base: Unknown option 'ac97_powersave' for plugin 'AudioPlugin'.
