testing/cpupower: Moving linux-tools to dedicated cpupower package. Update to use 4.1.15 kernel. Add cpupower initd and confd from Gentoo.

- Updating version to compile from Linux 4.1.15 source.
- Adding a confd and initd from Gentoo's cpupower package, as is, except changing to #!/sbin/openrc-run in the initd.
- Removing testing/linux-tools, and creating a dedicated testing/cpupower package. Cpupower needs a doc, lang, and dev subpkg.

+# Options when starting cpufreq (given to the `cpupower` program)
+# Possible options are:
+# -g --governor <GOV> (ie: ondemand, performance, or powersave)
+# -d --min <FREQ> (ie: 1000MHz)
+# -u --max <FREQ> (ie: 2000MHz)
+# -f --freq <FREQ> (requires userspace governor, this *can not* be combined with
+#                   with any other parameters).
+# Frequencies can be passed in Hz, kHz (default), MHz, GHz, or THz by postfixing the
+# value with  the  wanted  unit name, without any space.
+# (frequency in kHz =^ Hz * 0.001 =^ MHz * 1000 =^ GHz * 1000000).

+# up_threshold: threshold for stepping up frequency, where the value represents

+# represents the percentage of cpu load.
+#
+# sampling_down_factor: determines how frequently the governor polls the cpu, a
+# value greater than 1 improves performance by reducing the polling when the
+# load is high. This tunable has no effect on behavior at lower CPU frequencies.

+# ignore_nice_load: when set to '1' the processes that are run with a 'nice'
+# value will not count in the usage calculation.
