platform/x86: Add and use a dual_accel_detect() helper
Various 360 degree hinges (yoga) style 2-in-1 devices use 2 accelerometers to allow the OS to determine the angle between the display and the base of the device. On Windows these are read by a special HingeAngleService process which calls undocumented ACPI methods, to let the firmware know if the 2-in-1 is in tablet- or laptop-mode. The firmware may use this to disable the kbd and touchpad to avoid spurious input in tablet-mode as well as to report SW_TABLET_MODE info to the OS. Since Linux does not call these undocumented methods, the SW_TABLET_MODE info reported by various pdx86 drivers is incorrect on these devices. Before this commit the intel-hid and thinkpad_acpi code already had 2 hardcoded checks for ACPI hardware-ids of dual-accel sensors to avoid reporting broken info. And now we also have a bug-report about the same problem in the intel-vbtn code. Since there are at least 3 different ACPI hardware-ids in play, add a new dual_accel_detect() helper which checks for all 3, rather then adding different hardware-ids to the drivers as bug-reports trickle in. Having shared code which checks all known hardware-ids is esp. important for the intel-hid and intel-vbtn drivers as these are generic drivers which are used on a lot of devices. The BOSC0200 hardware-id requires special handling, because often it is used for a single-accelerometer setup. Only in a few cases it refers to a dual-accel setup, in which case there will be 2 I2cSerialBus resources in the device's resource-list, so the helper checks for this.
