Userspace prefers the driver having a status property over having to guess
itself. Specifically this will properly make the GNOME3 UI (and likely
others) properly show discharging / charging / full status, instead
of always showing discharging as status.
Note that in the case there is no charger driver supplying the max17042,
then a status of unknown will get returned. At least upower treats
this the same as not having a status attribute, so in this case nothing
changes from a userspace pov.
