There is a 4% difference between the kernel's view of battery level and the
actual battery level, to give userspace a chance to shut down cleanly. The
EC should turn the lightbar red when the battery drops below 10%, so this
change makes that happen when the kernel says it's 10%, instead of the real
10%.
Note: We don't have to cherry-pick this to the Link branch. Although it
affects the EC, we already patch the EC lightbar parameters at boot and
that's done in userspace.

Unplug Link, let the battery run down. The lightbar should pulse red when
the battery level reported by the UI drops to 9% (there may be a little
delay due to rounding). Note that it's only red when on battery.

We have yet another tweak for the lightbar, but we don't want to update the
EC. This CL adds an init script that runs on the AP at every boot and pokes
the EC to modify the lightbar settings. We have to run it at every boot
because the EC will hibernate after the AP has been off (not suspended) for
an hour on battery power and will lose its settings.
There's a corresponding CL for the ec-utils ebuild that installs the
userspace scripts into the rootfs.

Build the image for Link, install, reboot.
Run "ectool lightbar params". The output should match what's in
/usr/share/ec/lightbar_params.txt
