Some of the chargers for lithium-ion batteries use a trickle-charging as
a first charging phase for very empty batteries, to "wake-up" the battery.
Trickle-charging is a low current, constant current phase. After the
voltage of the very empty battery has reached an upper limit for
trickle charging, the pre-charge phase is started with a higher current.
Allow defining the upper limit for trickle charging voltage, after which
the charging should be changed to the pre-charging.

The term 'trickle-charging' is used to describe a very slow charging
phase, where electrons "trickle-in" the battery.
There are two different use-cases for this type of charging. At least
some Li-Ion batteries can benefit from very slow, constant current,
pre-pre phase 'trickle-charging', if a battery is very empty.
Some other batteries use top-off phase 'trickle-charging', which is
different from the above case.
The battery bindings use the term 'trickle-charge' without specifying
which of the use-cases properties are addressing. This has already
caused some confusion.
Clarify that the 'trickle-charge-current-microamp' refers to the first
one, the "pre-pre" -charging use-case.

Now that the schema tools can extract type information for all
properties (in order to decode dtb files), finding properties missing
any type definition is fairly trivial though not yet automated.
Fix the various property schemas which are missing a type. Most of these
tend to be device specific properties which don't have a vendor prefix.
A vendor prefix is how we normally ensure a type is defined.

This adds a battery-chemistry property and bindings for the different
"technologies" that are used in Linux. More types can be added.
This is needed to convert the custom ST-Ericsson AB8500 battery
properties over to the generic battery bindings.
