PM / hibernate: Make passing hibernate offsets more friendly

Currently the only way to specify a hibernate offset for a
swap file is on the kernel command line.

Add a new /sys/power/resume_offset that lets userspace
specify the offset and disk to use when initiating a hibernate
cycle.

Description:
This file is used for telling the kernel an offset into a disk
to use when hibernating the system such as with a swap file.
Reads from this file will display the current offset
the kernel will be using on the next hibernation
attempt.
Using this sysfs file will override any values that were
set using the kernel command line for disk offset.

Swap partition:
You need to append resume=/dev/your_swap_partition to kernel command
line. Then you suspend by
line or specify it using /sys/power/resume.
Swap file:
If using a swapfile you can also specify a resume offset using
resume_offset=<number> on the kernel command line or specify it
in /sys/power/resume_offset.
After preparing then you suspend by
