ACPI: battery: negate current when discharging
The ACPI specification requires that battery rate is always positive, but the kernel ABI for POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CURRENT_NOW (Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-power) specifies that it should be negative when a battery is discharging. When reporting CURRENT_NOW, massage the value to match the documented ABI. This only changes the sign of `current_now` and not `power_now` because documentation doesn't describe any particular meaning for `power_now` so leaving `power_now` unchanged is less likely to confuse userspace unnecessarily, whereas becoming consistent with the documented ABI is worth potentially confusing clients that read `current_now`.
