[RFC 3/3] powernv/cpuidle : Introduce capability for firmware-enabled-stop

This patch introduces the capability for firmware to handle the stop
states instead. A bit is set based on the discovery of the feature
and correspondingly also the responsibility to handle the stop states.

If Kernel does not know about stop version, it can fallback to opal for
idle stop support if firmware-stop-supported property is present.
