[PATCH v3] linux: Detect the battery of bluetooth input devices.

[Martin Pitt]

Hey Shih-Yuan,

for the record, the Launchpad bugs have various upower --dump outputs
which are relevant for this:

  http://pad.pv/1086746 (inline)
  http://pad.pv/1181640 (inline)

Note that all these already have "power supply: no", so at least that
property already seems to be correct.

I would like to create a test case for this to verify the fix and
ensure it stays working in the future. For this we need the sysfs
contents for these devices. Do you have such a device? I asked for it
in http://pad.lv/1153488, i. e. for

  grep -r . /sys/class/power_supply/*hid*

I started writing a test case: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6058063/
But it needs to be updated with some real-life sysfs data, not just
from the bits that I reconstructed from above upower dumps.

That's a rather complex logic indeed, so let's capture a keyboard and
a mouse in above test and ensure that upower detects the right thing
in all these.

Thanks!
