Subject: [PATCH v3 1/8] power: supply: core: Add resistance power supply
 property

From: Fenglin Wu <fenglin.wu@....qualcomm.com>

Some battery drivers provide the ability to export internal resistance
as a parameter. Add internal_resistance power supply property for that
purpose.

+Description:
+		Represent the battery's internal resistance, often referred
+		to as Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR). It is a dynamic
+		parameter that reflects the opposition to current flow within
+		the cell. It is not a fixed value but varies significantly
+		based on several operational conditions, including battery
+		state of charge (SoC), temperature, and whether the battery
+		is in a charging or discharging state.
