[plasmashell] [Bug 457893] Respect upower's "should be ignored" tag when determining whether or not to notify about low battery

--- Comment #6 from Cherkah <cherk...@pm.me> ---
Adding a data point for a Logitech MX Keys keyboard (not a mouse).

upower -i output:
  battery-level: normal
  percentage:    55% (should be ignored)
  state:         discharging

The keyboard is fully functional. Solaar reports the real battery level
correctly (50-55%).

The notification I receive is:
"La batterie dans « Logitech MX Master 3 » est faible. Veuillez recharger la
batterie."
(Note: it wrongly names the MX Master 3 mouse instead of the MX Keys keyboard,
but that's a separate issue.)

Key point: upower explicitly documents that when battery-level is set, the
percentage should be ignored (see up-device.c: "User Interfaces should use this
approximate level instead of percentages"). PowerDevil appears to use the
percentage anyway.

This affects keyboards too, not just mice.
