Bug description:
  [SRU Justification]

  [Impact]

  power-profiles-daemon >= 2.0 now utilizes AMD GPU panel_power_savings
  sysfs entry to set desired panel power saving level. Related kernel
  fixes are to be released in v6.9.

  [Fix]

  Two linux-next committed fixes are required. The first one introduces
  panel_power_savings sysfs entry itself, and the second one extends
  abmlevel sysfs entry to allow an auto mode.

  [Test Case]

  1. Check existence of panel_power_savings sysfs entry:

     $ cat /sys/class/drm/card0-eDP-1/amdgpu/panel_power_savings
     -1

  2. Remove power cable and switch between power profiles from Power
  Management settings. The content of above panel_power_savings sysfs
  entry should be updated correspondingly.

  [Where problems could occur]

  While the abmlevel entry now has a different default value that allows
  automatic power management, the behavior may differ from users'
  expectation.

  [Other Info]

  power-profiles-daemon >= 0.20 is only available on Noble or later at
  this moment, so only Noble/Unstable will be nominated for fix.
