Reports 0% charged for fully charged batteries

Bug description:
SRU INFORMATION:
Explanation: This bug was introduced with
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/upower/commit/?id=07b95b8e which preferred the
kernel's reported percentage ("capacity" sysfs attribute") over calculating it
from energy/charge. This exposed some buggy batteries/drivers which sometimes
report > 100% charge. As the GObject "percentage" property is defined to be
between 0 and 100, trying to set a value > 100% resulted in a warning and
defaulting to 0%.
Fix: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/upower/commit/?id=22da1a0bc ; this
clamping already happens at several other points in the code.
Regression potential: Very low. The code change only applies to the
explicit cases of < 0% and > 100%, and these values could have never
actually appeared in practice as setting the property to these values
fails. It has a test case, and the other test cases prove that this
change did not break other configurations. In the worst case (compiler
bugs etc.) this update could cause currently working battery
information to be wrong, but upower is mostly an informational service
these days and thus won't have the ability to completely break the
system.
