ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: improve thinkpad detection

Improve the detection of ThinkPads, so as to reduce the chances of false
positives.

Since this could potentially add false negatives on the very old models,
add a module parameter to force the detection of a thinkpad.

Force loading of module
-----------------------
If thinkpad-acpi refuses to detect your ThinkPad, you can try to specify
the module parameter force_load=1. Regardless of whether this works or
not, please contact ibm-acpi-devel@lists.sourceforge.net with a report.
