Hello.

The first patch will add system (arch-kernel) specific
x86-energy-perf-policy package,
and the second patch will adjust TLP package to use
x86-energy-perf-policy as a optional/system-specific run-time
dependency.

To understand my motivation please take a look at:
- https://linrunner.de/en/tlp/docs/tlp-configuration.html#scaling
the section explaining ENERGY_PERF_POLICY_ON_AC parameter has the
following note:
"Important: this setting requires the kernel module msr and the tool
x86_energy_perf_policy matching your kernel version."
