Added a sysfs entry to support writing to the offset register on page1.
This register is used to calibrate the chip canceling offset errors in the
current ADC. This means that, over time, reading the IAD register will not
return the correct current measurement, it will have an offset. Writing to
the offset register if the two's complement of the current register while
passing zero current to the load will calibrate the measurements. This
change was tested on real hardware and it was able to calibrate the chip
correctly.

Added a sysfs entry to support reading the page1 registers. This registers
contain Elapsed Time Meter (ETM) data, which shows for how long the chip is
on, as well as an Offset Register data, which can be used to calibrate the
current measurement of the chip.
