power: supply: ab8500: Exit maintenance if too low voltage
The maintenance charging is supposedly designed such that the maintenance current compensates for the battery discharge curve, and as the charging progress from CC/CV -> maintenance A -> maintenance B states, we end up on a reasonable voltage to restart ordinary CC/CV charging after the safety timer at the maintenance B state exits. However: old batteries discharge quicker, and in an old battery we might not get to the expiration of the maintenance B timer before the battery is completely depleted and the system powers off with an empty battery. This is hardly the desire of anyone leaving their phone in the charger for a few days! Introduce a second clause in both maintenance states such that we exit the state and return to ordinary CC/CV charging if the voltage drops below charge_restart_voltage_uv or 95% if this is not defined for the battery.
