[PATCH] power: supply: max17042_battery: infer the status when no supplier is described

[Derek Ross]

When no power supply is described as supplying the battery,
power_supply_am_i_supplied() returns -ENODEV and the driver reports
POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_UNKNOWN, even though the gauge measures the battery
current itself.

That is the case on the Pixel 7 Pro, where the charger is left running
by the bootloader and no charger driver is bound yet. The battery read
"Unknown" while taking in 1.2 A, so the desktop showed no charging
indicator and upower treated the phone as discharging: at its critical
percentage it put a charging phone to sleep.

When no supplier is described and current sense is enabled, take the
status from the measured current: charging while current flows into the
battery, full when the gauge reports end of charge and no current flows,
discharging otherwise. A described supplier keeps the existing logic, and
without current sense the status stays unknown.
