#4394: EC needs to implement wakeup source command

Currently when we wake up from an SCI, generally we get a 0x1. This could
be caused by a keyboard press, a gamekey press, inserting/removing the AC
adapter, hitting the touchpad, etc. Userspace (OHM, etc) may want more
information about the wakeup source. One way to do this is to implement a
0x1-specific wakeup source command; however, what makes even more sense is
to have a generic wakeup-source EC command. So, we get an SCI (whether
it's battery, 0x1, wlan, etc), and the kernel immediately runs the wakeup-
source EC cmd to find out what woke us up. We only need a buffer of 1
event (though probably >= 2 bytes wide if possible), as long as userspace
isn't racy.
