Oh, right. :-)

Some laptops don't provide the rate information, but that's not reason
for HAL not to provide it. That's what this change does. The first time
around it stores the chargeLevel. On each subsequent run it uses the
chargeLevel from the previous run to determine the rate at which it
drops (during discharge) or rises (during charge).. That info is passed
on to the time calculation code and voila!

It stores the info about each battery in a hashmap with the udi as key,
so it also supports multiple batteries.
