[PATCH 0/2] platform/x86: acer-wmi: Add Nitro AN16-41 support and handle its mode key

The Acer Nitro AN16-41 supports the Predator Sense v4 platform profile,
hwmon sensors and fan control, but needs predator_v4=1 to expose them,
and its mode key does nothing because it reports key_num 0x4, which the
driver only treats as a turbo button.
Patch 1 routes key_num 0x4 to the platform profile cycle on machines
without the turbo LED capability, where it was previously a no-op.
Patch 2 adds a DMI quirk for the AN16-41.
Both patches were tested together on an AN16-41 (BIOS V1.03) running
7.0: the quirk matches without module parameters, all five profiles
cycle from the mode key, and pwm works in custom, maximum and automatic
mode.
