ACPI: add a Kconfig option for ACPI procfs interface
Add a kconfig option CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS to make procfs interface a configurable attribute of ACPI. No procfs interface is actually deprecated, and no sysfs interface is added in this patch. CONGI_ACPI_PROCFS is used to mark procfs interface as deprecated once the same function is duplicated in sysfs.
