Subject: ACPI / Battery: Add a _BIX quirk for NEC LZ750/LS

commit a90b40385735af0d3031f98e97b439e8944a31b3 upstream.

The AML method _BIX of NEC LZ750/LS returns a broken package which
skips the first member "Revision" (ACPI 5.0, Table 10-234).

Add a quirk for this machine to skip member "Revision" during parsing
the package returned by _BIX.
