[Skiboot] [PATCH v2] powercap: occ: Fix the powercapping range allowed for user

OCC provides two limits for minimum powercap. One being hard powercap
minimum which is guaranteed by OCC and the other one is a soft
powercap minimum which may or may not be asserted due to various
power-thermal reasons. This patch exports the soft-min powercap via
device tree and "powercap-min" DT property will be continued to be
used as hard powercap minimum.

Fixes: c6aabe3f2eb5("powercap: occ: Add a generic powercap framework")
