Commit c955fe8e0bdd ("POWER: Add support for cycle_count") added a
POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CYCLE_COUNT "cycle_count" property to the set of
standard power-supply properties, but this was never documented,
document it now.

Ugh, I already send a v2 to address the positive spelling error,
well guess I'll do a v3 now then :)
