power_supply_get_property() should ideally return -EAGAIN if it is
called while the power_supply is being registered. There was no way
previously to determine if use_cnt == 0 meant that the power_supply
wasn't fully registered yet, or if it had already been unregistered.

Add a new boolean to the power_supply struct to simply show if
registration is completed.

This patch continues what was discussed with the patch
"power_supply: power_supply_read_temp only if use_cnt > 0".
Looking at the thermal code, it looks like we should indeed return
EAGAIN if possible, and since this change is fairly simple, I think
it makes sense to do it.
