Matt DeVillier 8cc8f219bf Documentation/drivers: Add ACPI five-level fan control documentation
Document the ACPI thermal zone pattern used across multiple mainboards
that implement five-level fan control via power resource state machines.

This pattern is used by 9 mainboards including Google Chromebooks
(beltino, jecht variants), Samsung stumpy, and Intel reference boards
(wtm2, baskingridge, emeraldlake2).

The documentation covers:
- Power resource state machine implementation
- Temperature management via PECI/SuperIO
- Active and passive cooling policies
- Critical FNP4._OFF no-op requirement for Windows compatibility
- Implementation variations and checklist for new boards

Initial framework generated by Cursor AI, heavily edited thereafter.
