The documentation lacks one important aspect: What happens
if I have a device where the factory did not program "Long Life"?
I.e. what happens when

# cat /sys/class/power_supply/wilco-charger/charge_type
Standard
# echo "Long Life" > /sys/class/power_supply/wilco-charger/charge_type

Will the controller switch into permanent long life battery mode
without any exit strategy?

The "Permanent" part is specific to the Wilco EC, so I think it's
better to avoid it in the generic API. I think it's better to use
just "Long Life" (and keep the wilco specific sysfs Documentation,
that Long Life configuration is permanent).
